Chapter 8: Security

There are a number of elements to consider when addressing security for console servers. The
following are some of the Security aspects:

• Encrypting the data traffic sent between the operator console and the DSX unit.

• Providing authentication and authorization for users.

• Logging data relevant to the operation so it can later be viewed for auditing purposes. In

some cases, this data is required for compliance with governmental or company
regulations.

• Encryption of port data log sent to a remote nfs server.
• Security profile
• “Man in the Middle”


The Security function provides the Dominion SX administrator with the following tools:

• Specify login authentication and handling parameters.
• Kerberos settings.
• Certificate specifications.
• Banner to be displayed.
• Security profile management.
• Manage firewall rules.
