5.1.3.4.6 Encryption Key
This key is used by both the WCM and the server to provide a secure,
encrypted password exchange and authentication. This must be set the same on both
WCM and Server(s).
For security reasons, the Encryption key is shown as a string of * to prevent the key being
read by unauthorized users.
Note, when no key has been defined, the entry is empty.
The Encryption key may be changed as follows:
Enter new string
Password> **********
Verify> **********
In order for the new key to be accepted, both strings must match, a mismatch will lead to
the warning message:
Invalid entry - any key to continue
