Security Page
The Security Page provides a list of tabs that can be used to view and configure the security configuration
of the NovaRoam. Selecting a tab will provide a list of configurable options.
Encryption Tab
The Encryption Tab is used to enable or disable encryption, change encryption keysets, and upload
network and security configuration files. The following parameters can be configured.
•
Set Network Configuration. After creating a network configuration file using the NovaRoam
Security Utility, this option allows administrators to upload the network configuration file to the
NovaRoam. Press the Browse button to locate the network configuration file, which will have a
.dat file extension. Then press the Upload button to insert the network configuration into the
NovaRoam. You will be prompted to login after the network configuration has been applied.
•
Set Security Configuration. After creating a security configuration file using the NovaRoam
Security Utility, this option allows administrators to upload the security configuration file to the
NovaRoam. Press the Browse button to locate the security configuration file, which will have a
.rss file extension. Then press the Upload button to insert the security configuration into the
NovaRoam. You will be prompted to login after the security configuration has been applied.
•
Keyset. Specifies the encrypted keyset that is currently in use. All NovaRoams within the
network must use the same keyset in order to communicate with each other when encryption is
enabled.
•
Use Latest. Press the Use Latest button to use the keyset with the highest keyset number. All
radios must use the same keyset installed in order to communicate.
•
Switchover. Enter the desired keyset number into the Keyset field, and then press the
Switchover button to use the new key. NovaRoams include an “auto switchover” feature that
allows the network to automatically update to a more recent key. If a NovaRoam receives a
packet that was encrypted using a new keyset, and the receiving radio has the new keyset
installed, it will automatically switch to the new keyset. When switching keysets it is
recommended to change the farthest radios first and work your way back to the closest radios in
order to avoid losing the ability to connect to a radio that is using a different keyset.
•
Enable Encryption. Placing a checkmark in the Enable Encryption checkbox enables wireless
network encryption on the NovaRoam.
