CHAPTER 1: BEFORE YOU START
D20MX Processor
The D20MX is a single board computer built around a 667 MHz embedded PowerQUICC II
Pro processor. The D20MX permits the D20 to be NERC CIPS compliant and introduces
compliance to IEC standards; refer to
Appendix A, Standards & Protection for the complete
listing.
The D20MX can be retrofitted into either a D20 3U single-node VME chassis or D20 3U non-
VME chassis. In a single-node VME chassis, this one processor module replaces the
previous D20 M, M++, ME, and MEII CPU cards.
Due to aging printed circuit board assembly and mechanical constraints, only certain
chassis from 2002 and onward can be used with a D20MX. This comprises the following
chassis:
•
D20 VME chassis 500-0280 Release 08 or higher,
• D20 Non-VME chassis 500-0305 Release 18 or higher
A solid partition between the Main processor bay and accessory bay prevents access to
the harness from the fiber card to D20MX card (only applicable to the 526-3005LF fiber
card version).
Security
The D20MX provides the following new security improvements over its predecessors:
•
Centralized user authentication and authorization (RADIUS), including integration with
Microsoft Servers using NPS
• Role Based Access Control (RBAC) keeping operator and engineering activities
separated, logged and simple
• NERC compliant passwords, with strong complexity rules and one-way encrypted
• Full auditing including Syslog integration to enterprise systems
• SFTP for secure network-based firmware upgrades and configuration file transfers
• SSH for secure network access to WESMAINT II+.
To take advantage of these improvements, refer to the WESMAINT II+ for the D20MX
Configuration Guide (B014-1NCG) for details of these security features of the D20MX.
