Parameters
authentication-key — Specifies the authentication key. Allowed values are any string up to 20
characters long composed of printable, 7-bit ASCII characters. If the string contains special
characters (#, $, spaces, etc.), the entire string must be enclosed within double quotes.
hash-key — The hash key. The key can be any combination of ASCII characters up to 33 (hash1-key)
or 55 (hash2-key) characters in length (encrypted). If spaces are used in the string, enclose the
entire string in quotation marks (“ ”).
hash — Specifies the key is entered in an encrypted form. If the hash or hash2 parameter is not used,
the key is assumed to be in a non-encrypted, clear text form. For security, all keys are stored in
encrypted form in the configuration file with the hash or hash2 parameter specified.
hash2 — Specifies the key is entered in a more complex encrypted form that involves more variables
then the key value alone, this means that hash2 encrypted variable cannot be copied and pasted.
If the hash or hash2 parameter is not used, the key is assumed to be in a non-encrypted, clear text
form. For security, all keys are stored in encrypted form in the configuration file with the hash or
hash2 parameter specified.
