Setting the Security Transmission Parameters of the BSC6000 Local Maintenance Terminal

This describes how to set the security transmission parameters of the BSC6000 Local Maintenance Terminal. The setting of the SSL parameters on the BSC6000 Local Maintenance Terminal implements the secure connection between the BSC6000 Local Maintenance Terminal and the server. In this way, the confidentiality and integrity of communication contents are guaranteed.

Procedure

• Set the common connection between the BSC6000 Local Maintenance Terminal and the server.
  1. Log in to the BSC6000 Local Maintenance Terminal and set Connection Type to Common Connection.
• Set the SSL encryption connection between the BSC6000 Local Maintenance Terminal and the server.
  1. Log in to the BSC6000 Local Maintenance Terminal in online mode and run the LST SSLCONF command to check Authentication Mode in the message.

     Table 1

     If Authentication Mode Is Set to...	Authentication Mode on the BSC6000 Local Maintenance Terminal Is Set to...
