Unencrypted UTS Sessions

When you unencrypt a UTS session, all sessions associated with the connection name are then unencrypted.

If you need to run both encrypted and unencrypted UTS sessions from the same client, the terminal ID (TID), channel, environment, and connection configurations for each kind of session (encrypted or unencrypted) must be unique.

Because it is easy to inadvertently mix and match the named channel, environment, and connection configurations, it is recommended that you give similar descriptive names to all the named configurations that are related to one kind of session. For example, an encrypted channel to a DCP in a demand mode could use dcp_enc and dcp_dem_enc as the channel and environment configurations names.

To create a UTS session that uses an encrypted channel/connection without affecting existing unencrypted sessions
  1. Create a new UTS session in Accessory Manager, completing the dialog boxes as prompted.

    Specifically, be sure to:

    • Assign a unique TID to the session.

    • Enter a new name for the channel.

      If you do not enter a new channel name, you will not be able to use the original channel for an unencrypted session.

    • Enter a new environment name.

    • Enter a new connection name.

    • Enter the IP address or domain name of the CryptoConnect Gateway and select the Encrypted Connection box.

  2. Click Finish to establish the session.

    When the new session connects to the CryptoConnect TCP/IP Gateway, a padlock symbol appears on the status bar to indicate a secure connection.

When you configure additional encrypted sessions, you can use the same channel and environment names as long as you use a new TID and path name. You will not be prompted to enter a connection, check the encryption option, or enter the gateway IP address if you re-use the channel and environment. The new session gathers that information from the channel and environment configurations.
