NetLinx Master Security
NetLinx Studio supports security for NetLinx Masters, via the Authentication Required option in the Communication
Settings dialog.
Before you can enable/disable security on a Master through NetLinx Studio, you must verify the following:

The target Master has been loaded with firmware that supports security. This means that the Master must have
Master Firmware version 304 (or higher) to support this functionality. If your master does not have firmware
loaded that supports security, the Master will not be secured (although it might appear to be in NetLinx
Studio).

Security has been enabled on the target Master (via options in the Security tab of the Master's built-in
interface). Refer to the Master's documentation for details on enabling/disabling security.

With security enabled, users will be required to provide the correct User Name and Password in order to
establish communication with the Master.

The User Name and Password are case-sensitive.

If the correct User Name and Password are not entered, NetLinx Studio will display an "Authentication
Failure" message, and the connection to the Master will be denied.

You can apply a default User Name and Password to the No active System - Default Settings option, so that
as you create new NetLinx systems they will always require that User Name/Password combination.
Connecting to a Secured NetLinx Master
When connecting to a NetLinx Master that has security enabled, you will be required to enter a User Name and Password
before you can connect.
To establish a connection to a secured master,
1.
Select
Settings > Communication Settings
to open the
Communication Settings
dialog and select
NetLinx
as the
platform, and select a Transport Connection type.
2.
Click
Edit Settings
to configure the selected transport type.
3.
Click OK to save the TCP/IP, or Serial settings (depending on the transport type selected).
4.
Click the
Authentication Required
check box. This enables the
User Name and Password
button.
5.
Click on User Name and Password to enter the User Name and Password that are set for this NetLinx Master (in
the
Master Controller User Name and Password
dialog). These are case sensitive.
6.
Click OK to close the Master Controller User Name and Password dialog.
7.
Click
OK
to close the
Communication Settings
dialog.
8.
Click OK to close the Master Communication Settings dialog.
At this point you should be able to connect to the Master.
If You Don't Connect

Verify that the master is set for ICSP Connectivity, with Require Encryption enabled (via the Master's built-in
interface).

Refer to the Master's documentation for details on enabling/disabling security.
This security option is not available for Axcess masters, or for NetLinx Virtual Master
connections.
