BACK NEXT
3. Use the touch wheel to display the type of connection between the nShield Connect and the
client. The following options are available:
Option Description
Unprivileged Privileged connections are never allowed.
Priv. on low ports
Privileged connections are allowed only from ports numbered
less than 1024. These ports are reserved for use by root on
Unix-based systems.
Priv. on any ports Privileged connections are allowed on all ports.
A privileged connection is required to administer the nShield Connect, for example to
initialize a Security World. If privileged connections are allowed, the client can issue
commands (such as clearing the nShield Connect) which interfere with the normal
operation of the nShield Connect. We recommend that you allow only unprivileged
connections unless you are performing administrative tasks.
4. When you have selected a connection option, press the right-hand navigation button.
The following screen is displayed:
Client configuration
This client is not
configured to use an
nToken. Do you want to
enroll with an nToken?
NO
BACK NEXT
The next steps in the configuration process vary slightly depending on whether the client uses an
nToken to communicate with the nShield Connect, or not.
5. Do one of the following:
a. To enroll the client without nToken authentication, select No and press the right-hand
navigation button. The unit displays a message reporting that the client has been
configured.
b. Press the right-hand navigation button again.
