5.6 BLUETOOTH SERVICES

Common Configuration Settings

These properties can be set individually for each Bluetooth service:

l

Service Name-the default name of each service can be changed.

l

Secure Connection-requires that remote devices provide proof of identity
and that all data be encrypted.

l

Startup Automatically-starts the service automatically when Bluetooth is
started.

l

Notifications-provides visual and/or audio notification that a remote de-
vice is attempting to connect (or has connected) to a service on this
computer.

5.6.1 Notifications

Overview

There are three types of notification:

l

Authentication request, also called a PIN code request

—this notification ap-

pears automatically in a balloon over the Windows system tray if a Personal
Identification Code is required before a connection can proceed. An audio
file can also be associated with the notification.

l

Authorization request, also called a connection request

—this type of notifi-

cation can be visual, audio, or both. It notifies you of attempts to access a
Bluetooth service on this computer; the connection will not proceed until you
click the balloon that appears over the Windows system tray. If the notifica-
tion balloon is ignored, the connection request will time out and fail.

l

Notification only

—this type of notification does not effect access in any way;

it is solely for information purposes to let you know that a connection has
been established.

Example

Both Authentication and Authorization request notifications are controlled by whether
Secure Connection is enabled for an individual service.

An example of how notifications might work when a remote device attempts to access
a service on this computer, if all notifications are enabled:
