6. Verify that at least 3 configuration files are created -
fwupdate.cfg,
config.txt and devices.csv. You are ready to configure or upgrade any
PX3 with these files. See
Configuration or Firmware Upgrade with
a USB Drive
(on page 548).
Data Encryption in 'config.txt'
Encryption for any settings in the file "config.txt" is supported as of
release 3.2.20.
When intending to prevent people from identifying the values of any
settings, you can encrypt them. Encrypted data still can be properly
interpreted and performed by any PX3 running firmware version 3.2.20
or later.
Data encryption procedure:
1. Open the "config.txt" file to determine which setting(s) to encrypt.

If an appropriate "config.txt" is not created yet, see
Creating
Configuration Files via Mass Deployment Utility (on page 558).
2. Launch a terminal to log in to the CLI of any PX3 running version
3.2.20 or later. See
Logging in to CLI
(on page 366).
3. Type the encryption command and the value of the setting you want
to encrypt.

The value
cannot contain any double quotes (") or backslashes
(-).

If the value contains spaces, it must be enclosed in double
quotes.
# config encrypt <value>
-- OR --
# config encrypt "<value with spaces>"
4. Press Enter. The CLI generates and displays the encrypted form of
the typed value.
5. Go to the "config.txt" file and replace the chosen value with the
encrypted one by typing or copying the encrypted value from the CLI.
6. Add the text "encrypted:" to the beginning of the encrypted setting.
7. Repeat steps 3 to 6 for additional settings you intend to encrypt.
8. Save the changes made to the "config.txt" file. Now you can use this
file to configure any PX3 running version 3.2.20 or later. See
Configuration or Firmware Upgrade with a USB Drive
(on page
548).
