LinkLockisapartofRADWIN’ssecurityconceptintendedtomeetaformofabuse
encounteredinthefield.ItisdesignedtopreventthesituationwherearemoteODU
canbestolenandusedasa“pirate”linktostealservicesorinformation.TheLink
LockfeatureactuallylocksthelocalODUtobesynchronizedONLYtospecificremote
ODU. Itisasiteorientedfeature.
Thelockcanonlybesetfromalivelink.ItisbasedonMACauthenticationandissite
orientedandactivated onaperODUbasis.Forexample,ifyoulocktheSiteBODUto
theSiteAODU,youmuststilllocktheSiteAODUtotheSiteBODUtoensure
completetwowaylocking.
LinkLockcanonlyberemovedwhenthelinkisunsynchronized.Insuchacase,an
alarmisraisedbytheRADWINManager.
