Warning
The encryption can be set from a remote UI, but should
only be done on the analyzer to prevent unauthorized
detection of the encryption key while it is being set. What
this means is, a remote UI could be capturing packets
while another remote UI is setting the data encryption, and
capture the encryption key. That is why we recommend
setting the encryption on the analyzer.
Once the encryption key has been set on an analyzer, each user trying to open a
remote UI session with that analyzer will be prompted to first enter the encryption
key.
Note
Once a remote PC has successfully opened a remote UI by entering
the encryption key, that PC will remember the encryption key and it
will not have to be re-entered.
