Modifying Communication Preferences

ETEMS communication preferences pertain to the communication between ETEMS and an appliance. Communication preferences fall into two categories.

General communications between ETEMS and the appliances (Table 24).

Preferences that apply only when using strict authentication for EncrypTight components (Table 25). When strict authentication is enabled, all TLS communications between EncrypTight components is authenticated using certificates.

To change communication preferences:

1On the Edit menu, click Preferences.

2Click ETEMS to expand the tree, and then click Communications.
