Erpcd first attempts to match complete IP address entries in the
acp_keys file. If erpcd does not find an exact match, it searches
entries that contain wildcards. In either case, erpcd uses the first key
entry it finds.

Creating Encryption Keys

Define encryption keys by setting the acp_key parameter for each Remote
Annex. If the key value is not the same in the acp_keys file and for the
acp_key parameter, the Remote Annex and the server cannot
communicate. In addition, you must set the enable_security parameter
to to use security features.
