NetLinx Security within the Web Server

NetLinx Security - Web Server

 The following graphic illustrates the Ports which can be enabled for the validation of

rights by using a valid username and password. When one of the above options is

enabled, the Master then requires the entry of a valid username and password to validate

rights for that action and then grant or deny access.

Feature Description

ICSP Connectivity: This selection determines if a username and password is

required prior to communication with a target NetLinx Master via

an ICSP connection using any transport method (TCP/IP, UDP/IP,

and RS-232) (see FIG. 50).

• If this access is enabled and the user is not logged-in, when the

user attempts to connect, the authentication fails and displays

an “Access not allowed” message.

• This feature allows communication amongst various AMX

hardware and software components. This feature works

in-tandem with the Require Encryption option to require

that any application or hardware communicating with the

Master must provide a valid username and password.

• Refer to the ICSP Authentication section below for more

detailed information on how the Master authenticates.

Require Encryption: Requires that any data being transmitted or received via an ICSP

connection (among the various AMX products) be encrypted and

that any application or hardware communicating with the Master

over ICSP must provide a valid username and password.
