Identity

Computer Name

Bluetooth devices in the vicinity; this field cannot be left

 

blank.

Computer type

to help identify this computer to other Bluetooth devices in

 

the vicinity.

Security

High

requires Bluetooth devices to authenticate (enter a Personal

 

Identification Number (PIN)) before allowing a connection to be

 

established. Your computer and the connected Bluetooth device

 

will exchange data using encrypted links.

Medium

the default setting—security is configured at the service-level.

 

Service level security means that each individual service must

 

have its security settings (Authentication, Authorization and En-

 

cryption) set independently.

Note: If the security mode is “Medium” and service-level security is not configured, any Bluetooth device will be able to discover your computer and use its services.
