Authenticate Links
Authentication enables MOSCAD RTUs/IP Gateways to rely on the integrity of information
sent on the MDLC network. An RTU/Gateway can be certain that received data was
transmitted by the original sender and not by some other, unauthorized source. For background
information on authentication, see the Advanced Features section of the MOSCAD
Programming ToolBox Application Programmer manual.
When the Authenticate Links command is selected, a table of all links in the network is
displayed, as shown in the Links Authentication Information window below.
