BLUETOOTH SERVICE

Common Configuration Settings


These properties can be set individually for each Bluetooth service:

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

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

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

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

Notifications


There are three types of notification:

Authentication request, also called a PIN code request - this notification
is displayed automatically in a balloon over the Notification area, at the
far right of the taskbar if a Personal Identification Code is required before
a connection can proceed. An audio file can also be associated with the
notification.

Authorization request, also called a connection request - this type of
notification 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 is displayed over the Notification
area, at the far right of the taskbar. If the notification balloon is ignored,
the connection request will time out and fail.

Notification only - this type of notification does not affect 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:

Authentication - a balloon notification (audio optional) prompts you for a
PIN code. If the PIN code does not match the code entered on the
remote device, the connection will not be allowed. After the remote
device has been authenticated this notification will not appear again,
unless the paired relationship is broken. If the paired relationship is
broken, the devices must re-pair.

Authorization - a balloon notification is displayed and/or a sound file
provides audio notification that a remote device is attempting to access a
Bluetooth service on this computer. Click the balloon to proceed. A dialog
