9. CPUBDT SOFTWARE AUTHENTICATION
(Level 2)
9.1 The authentication network management terminal
The authentication network management terminal is software the purpose of which is to
authenticate equipment manufactured by Etelm using different means of communication.
Without this authentication the equipment cannot operate correctly. It consists in the retrieval
of an encrypted key by the network management terminal software and its transmission to the
equipment on order to unblock it.
There are two authentication methods which are: automatic and manual. One uses internet and
is automatic, the other involves calling Etelm and manually entering the encryption key. Once
the software key is in the software network management terminal, it must be sent to the
equipment to be identified either via a network cable or by a crossed serial cable.
