Security/Options

The purpose of this window is to define security information and miscellaneous options pertaining to this Adit. The security portion of this window allows the setup of password or secret (depending on the chosen security protocol) that this remote device will use during the authentication process. Also the setup of authentication on the LAN of the local Adit unit or a specified security server.

Authentication is a security process whereby the transmitting and receiving devices determine which security protocol to use during data transmission, as well as establish confirmation identity. This authentication process must match between the receiving and transmitting devices prior to actual data transmission, if the process fails, the link is terminated. The protocol used by the remote unit to authenticate the local unit and vice versa is defined in the LAN Profile.
