software to communicate with it.
•
In Security enabled mode, an initial server running DSView 3 software can download a
certificate to the switch. If that server is part of a system that replicates certificates, it passes
the certificate to the other servers in that certificate replication system. Thereafter, all servers
in that system will be allowed to access the DSR1024 switch. All servers that are not part of
that system will be locked out.

in that system will be allowed to access the DSR1024 switch. All servers that are not part of

When the DSR10241024 switch is removed from the DSView 3 software database, the certificate is
removed from the DSR10241024 switch. This enables you to move the DSR1024 switch from one
certificate replication system to another. You can also remove the certificate by using the Console

Sun servers may use keyboard mappings for non-US keyboards. By default, the DSR1024 switch
