3.6 SECURITY CONFIGURATION
There are many options for assisting you in providing secondary secu-
rity for your transceivers and the network. These options start with con-
trolling remote access to the network via Telnet, Web Browser, and
SNMP. Other areas include multiple levels of encryption and
MD5-level security for HTTP connections.
3.6.1 Security Configuration Menu
The Security Configuration Menu (Figure 3-21) allows settings of sev-
eral parameters related to network access, user credentials, and encryp-
tion. A review of each item on the menu is important to safeguarding
your network from unauthorized access. These settings should be
reviewed from time to time to make sure they are applicable to the cur-
rent state of your network.
Figure 3-21. Security Configuration Menu
• Approved Remotes— Enables authentication of Remote
radios before granting access to the network. [Enabled/Dis-
abled; Disabled]
Enabling forces the entraNET 900 to check the Approved
Remotes List before continuing the authorization process.
Before enabling this option, at least one entry must already exist
in the Approved Remotes List.
• Encryption Enable— Enable encryption of over-the-air
data packets. [Enabled, Disabled; Disabled]
Enabling forces the transceiver to use 128-bit encryption on all
over-the-air messages. This option requires the Encryption
Phrase to be previously configured.
