authentication options. This list indicates which cipher suites the 9992-ENC is
allowed to negotiate. The full names of the cipher suites are:

AES128-RSA:

TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

AES128-ECDSA:

TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

AES256-RSA:

TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384

AES256-ECDSA:

TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384

NULL:

TLS_RSA_WITH_NULL_SHA256

Notes:

The

NULL

cipher has

NO ENCRYPTION

, only authentication. It is

provided for testing purposes and

should not be enabled in production

.

The use of AES 256 encryption is not allowed in some jurisdictions.
Check your local laws before enabling.

If there are no common ciphers enabled between the 9992-ENC and the
peer, the connection will fail to be established.

The 9992-ENC will negotiate the most secure cipher suite available.
AES256 is preferred over AES128, and, for authentication, ECDSA is
preferred over RSA.

Restart Tunnel:

This button causes a configured tunnel to disconnect and reconnect.

Note that if the 9992-ENC is a server, it will be up to the peer to reconnect.

Apply/Cancel:

Each tunnel has independent Apply/Cancel buttons. Clicking on

Apply

causes the configuration changes to become active and persisted. Clicking on

Cancel

causes any changes to be discarded.

Network Configuration Authentication Tab

This tab controls the authentication options that are common for all RIST tunnels. Setting up
authentication also requires access to web pages exposed by the 9992-ENC. The section entitled
“RIST Main Profile Authentication” later in this document provides a detailed explanation of
this process, and shows the relationship between the controls presented here and the web
interface.

Access to the web interface is controlled by these settings:

Web Interface Password:

Web interface operations that are privileged require a

password. This configuration item sets the password. You can select any password and
enter it here. When executing a web interface operation that requires a password, use the
same password there. The default password is

Admin

and it is strongly recommended

that it be changed to something else.
