Standalone SL Console

Chapter 2 StorageTek Library Console 35
Standalone SL Console
The standalone SL Console is a standard feature of the StorageTek library. It enables 
you to run the SL Console application remotely from a PC or workstation that has a 
network connection to the library. Using the standalone SL Console you can connect to 
any library for which you have a valid user ID. 
Security Considerations
The SL Console application interfaces with the primary library interface (PLI) over a 
security software layer (SSL). The SSL provides a secure communication path between 
the library and the customer’s operator panel; this prevents an unauthorized network 
user from monitoring library activity.
