Master Security Setup Procedures

Setting the system security options for a NetLinx Master (Security Options Menu)

1.Enter the URL/IP Address of the target Master into the Address/URL field within the web browser. Refer to the Accessing the NetLinx Master via an IP Address section on page 35 for more detailed instructions on using your web browser to access your Master.

2.Click on the Security tab. By default this tab is blank until a security option is selected from the left of the browser window. Refer to the Security Tab section on page 37 for more detailed descriptions on the security configuration options.

3.Click the Enable Security link (on the left of the browser window) to populate the Security tab with NetLinx Master security options (FIG. 38) that can individually be enabled or disabled.

By default, Master Security and SSL Enable are disabled (unchecked), including the Master Security subcomponents: Terminal Access, HTTP Access, Telnet Access, and Security Configuration Access.

4.Click on the checkbox next to Master Security to enable the security on the target Master. Placing a check in this field allows you to alter the security properties for the remaining Master Security options (Terminal/HTTP/Telnet/Security Configuration). Refer to the Security tab - Enable Security page section on page 38 for more detailed field descriptions.

Each selection simply toggles the security setting from enabled to disabled. Click OK after making any changes to these features so that those alterations are then saved to the target Master.

5.Before enabling the SSL security, a user must first develop and then install a self-generated Certificate onto the Master. Refer to the Self-Generating a SSL Server Certificate Request section on page 62.

This initial installation allows users to then later install the different types of certificates (requested, self-generated, or regenerated).
