Configuration And Encryption; Configuring The Device's Accesses For Xml Control - G&D DP1.4-MUX2-NT Manual

Configuration and encryption

The XML API supports two types of encryption:
 Transport encryption:
encrypts the entire outgoing data stream.
Incoming XML commands are only accepted and executed if they are encrypted
with the identical key and initialisation vector.
 Password encryption: In this mode, only the passwords of user accounts in the G&D
device's XML responses are encrypted. For this purpose, a subset of the XML
encryption (see page 32) is used.
Using XML commands, you can send passwords in this mode either encrypted
(recommended) or in plain text to the device.

ADVICE: On request, our support will provide you with examples for API encryption

Configuring the device's accesses for XML control

Use the web application Config Panel to define the »Remote Control« accesses and
their settings.
IMPORTANT: Controlling the device via XML is only possible via these accesses.
How to set up a new access or edit an existing access:
1. Click on KVM-Switches
2. Click on the device you want to configure and then click on
3. Click on the tab
Network
4. Go to Remote control
5. To create a new access, click on
To edit an existing access, click on
