Identities

This feature helps your VNC viewer to confirm that a revisited Wizard IP Plus is genuine and not another device masquerading as an Wizard IP Plus. The list given will retain the identities of all visited units (that have full security enabled).

When you first make a secure connection to the Wizard IP Plus, the security information for that Wizard IP Plus unit is cached within this Identities tab (i.e. the “identity” is known). The next time that you connect to the Wizard IP Plus, its identity is checked against the stored version. If a mismatch is found between the current and the stored identities then a warning will be issued to you.

If an existing Wizard IP Plus is fully reconfigured then it will need to issued with a new identity. In this case the previous identity, listed in this tab, should be removed so that a new identity can be created on the next connection.
