Link Lock Security Feature Chapter 8
WinLink 1000 User Manual Release 1.9.40 8-12
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.
