KVL 4000 – Sharing Keys Between
KVLs
In addition to loading keys into target devices, the KVL can also load (share) its keys to another KVL of the
same or different model.
The following sharing functions are supported:
• Sharing a single key - The source KVL can share a selected key with another KVL.
• Sharing a key group - The source KVL can share its key groups (and the keys associated with these key
groups) with another KVL.
• Sharing all keys and all key groups - The source KVL can share all of its keys (including Traffic keys,
Shadow keys, macros, and indexes) with another KVL.
The following rules apply to sharing:
• Sharing must be turned ON in both the source and target KVL. See
• The target KVL must be on its main screen.
• Sharing cannot be performed between a KVL in ASN mode and a KVL in ASTRO
the mode of operation, see
• Only key data and key groups are shared. KVL configuration settings, the UKEK for each algorithm, and
log records for the target KVL remain unchanged.
• In order to share single keys or key groups that contain DVI-XL keys, the System Keys of both KVLs
must match.

6.1 Sharing a Single Key

Prerequisites:
In order to share a selected key, the target KVL must support the algorithm of the key being shared. If you want to
share a DVI-XL key, the System Keys in both KVLs must match for the sharing to be successful.
