This message is displayed if a ServSwitch CX with IP unit, that your	

viewer has previously visited, has had a change of security keys. This
is not uncommon if a unit is reset for some reason. However, it could
also mean that your trusted unit is being spoofed and you may not be
connecting to the system that you think you are.
Do not click the Yes button until you have checked with your
administrator that the trusted ServSwitch CX with IP unit has been
recently reset for some reason.	57
