HP StoreOnce Backup System CLI Reference Guide
net add encryption
Description of Command Function
Adds a new encrypted link configuration to a network configuration. This command is used when
configuring data in flight encryption (where encryption is applied at IP address level). Data in flight
encryption requires the Security Pack license.
NOTE: Backup or restore performance may decrease when data in flight encryption is turned
on. The amount of decrease in performance depends on the:
• CPU and memory resources of the backup media servers.
• Amount of data being transmitted.
If a data in flight encryption link is to be setup between a backup media server and a StoreOnce
appliance, it is recommended that:
• Multiple VLANs be configured between the backup media server and the StoreOnce appliance.
• A data in flight encryption link is configured within each VLAN to improve the aggregate
performance between the backup media server and the StoreOnce appliance.
