Creating/Modifying System Flags

The following System Flags in system.cfg control secure communications.

AppendixF, “System Flags” , below, lists both flags and their settings.
If the System Flag, RMX_MANAGEMENT_SECURITY_PROTOCOL does not
exist in the system, it must be created by using the RMX Setup menu.

System Flags” on page 16-10.
The RMX must be restarted for modified flag settings to take effect.
