Fortress Bridge: Command-Line Interface
92
View the encryption algorithm (and the re-keying interval) in
effect on the Bridge with show crypto:
[GW]>
show crypto
CryptoEngine:AES256
ReKeyInterval:4
The show crypto command is valid only in GW (gateway)
mode (refer to Section 6.1.1 for more detail).
NOTE: You c an
combine on a sin-
gle command line the
set crypto arguments
that configure the en-
cryption algorithm and
the re-key interval.
The encryption algorithm that the Fortress Bridge and its
Clients will use is set with
set
crypto
, as follows:
[GW]>
set crypto [-e aes128|aes192|aes256]
The default encryption algorithm is AES256.
The set crypto command is valid only in GW (gateway) mode
(refer to Section 6.1.1 for more detail).
6.4.5.2 Re-Keying Interval in the CLI
The re-keying interval is the length of time between new keys
issued by the Fortress Bridge. View the re-keying interval (and
the encryption algorithm) in effect on the Bridge with show
crypto:
[GW]>
show crypto
CryptoEngine:AES256
ReKeyInterval:4
The show crypto command is valid only in GW (gateway)
mode (refer to Section 6.1.1 for more detail).
The re-keying interval in effect between the Fortress Bridge
and its Clients is set, in values between 1 and 24 hours, with
set crypto command, as follows:
[GW]>
set crypto [-t
<hrs>
]
The default re-keying interval is 4 hours.
The set crypto command is valid only in GW (gateway) mode
(refer to Section 6.1.1 for more detail).
6.4.5.3 Data Compression in the CLI
View the compression setting in effect on the Bridge with the
show command.
[GW]>
show compression
on
Configure data compression on the Bridge with the set
command:
[GW]>
set compression {on|off}
Compression is turned on by default.
Be advised that Bridges in a point-to-point/multipoint
configuration must be configured to use the same compression
setting, or they will be unable to communicate with one
another.
The show and set compression commands are valid only in
GW (gateway) mode (refer to Section 6.1.1 for more detail).
