Bluetooth Security
To modify your connection’s security settings, click:
My Bluetooth | Security
BlueSoleil offers three security levels:
•
Low
(Security Mode 1, Non-secure)
No security procedure is needed for connections.
•
Medium
(Security Mode 2, Service level enforced security)
Authentication or Authorization is requested when a specific service
is accessed by other Bluetooth enabled devices. If two devices are
connecting for the first time, or if two devices do not have a trusted
relationship, then the same passkey must be provided on both sides
to complete the Authentication. This mode allows you to assign dif-
ferent access rights for each service supported by the server device.
•
High
(Security Mode 3, Link level enforced security)
If either of two devices is in Mode 3, Authentication is requested
whenever a link connection is initiated between two Bluetooth en-
abled devices. The passkey must be provided on both sides to com-
plete Authentication.
Note:
In Security Mode 2, the user can add each authenticated de-
vice into a trusted device list to expedite future connections.
