Promiscuous Authentication (BU only)
The Promiscuous Authentication mode enables a new RB to become
associated with a BU where Shared Key operation and/or Data
Encryption is used, even if this RB does not have the correct security
parameters. After the RB is associated it should be remotely configured
with the proper parameters (or upgraded). Once the RB is configured
properly, the Promiscuous Mode should be disabled.
The default is Disable.
NOTE
Do not leave the BU in the mode of Promiscuous Authentication enabled for prolonged
periods. Use it only when absolutely necessary, perform the required actions as quickly
as possible and disable it. The unit will return automatically to Promiscuous
Authentication disabled mode after reset.
