Carrier Access 1750 Benutzerhandbuch

The Broadmore is controlled via system management software embedded in the 
CPU’s “flash disk” memory. This software defines the system command structure 
and provides a user interface for operation and administration. The Broadmore 
supports multiple user accounts and access levels. There are four levels of user 
access. Only a network administrator or crypto officer with “SuperUser” access 
can assign user names, passwords, and access levels.

The Broadmore now includes the Broadmore/SSHield Management Module, 
which is a FIPS 140-2 validated software-only module that meets the security 
requirements of Federal Information Processing Standard PUB 140-2. The 
Broadmore can operate in either FIPS mode or non-FIPS mode, depending on the 
desired level of security. (For a description of the FIPS mode features, see 
“Security Management (FIPS Mode)” on page

.)

Enabling FIPS mode security will disable FTP and Telnet access. 

Users must then log in using secure client replacements such as 
SecureCRT® and SecureFX®. A secure terminal emulator is required to 
enter a secure Broadmore system. Although many secure terminal 
emulators are available, SecureCRT is recommended.
