Security
This menu allows you to enable security for the device, a group, or a
port.
The security feature allows you to restrict access to the device, to a
group, or to a port. Any node that is heard on the device/group/port,
which is not allowed on the device/group/port (i.e., not in the
Auth
Node Table
with the
slotIndex
equal to this board or
0
for all boards)
causes the action specified in the
Violation Action
field.
Table 4-11, Table 4-12, and Table 4-13 describe each field in the Security
menu (for the device, a group, or a port, respectively).
