Network Security Settings:
MTS200 provides secure communication to remote machines through SSH and HTTPS mode for its own
status monitoring and configurations. However, SSH and HTTPS provide security layer though their
respective security keys and certificates. MTS200 is shipped with default factory SSH v1 and SSH v2
keys as well as with self-signed HTTPS certificate. But, MTS200 also provided flexibility to user to
generate their own SSH v1 and SSHv2 keys as well as HTTPS certificates through console based
configuration utility and Webserver mode.
It is always recommended to generate security keys and certificates in MTS200 through secured means
such as SSH and HTTPS. Other communication modes with MTS200 such as serial console, Telnet and
HTTP are not secured and prone to network intruders.
Below is the explanation for methods to generate SSH and HTTPS security keys through SSH based
console configuration utility application.
To go to security menu, user need to enter “SEQ” or “seq” in main menu of application utility as shown in
below image.
1 = To view and generate SSH related security keys
2 = To view and generate HTTPS related security certificate
3 = To view, generate, remove and update NTP autokeys
