There are three different kinds of passwords: 

Administrator password: Always active. Can be modified by pressing the “EDIT” icon. 

User password:  Must be activated. Can be modified by pressing the “EDIT” icon. 

Phonebook password:  Must be activated. Can be modified by pressing the “EDIT” icon.

3. ENCRYPTION 

The configuration menu will be displayed; here you can set the following parameters: 

Use Encryption: 
If encryption is activated, the Codec will use encryption in either H.323 or H.320. 
It is also possible to enable/disable the encryption from the toolbar: select the padlock icon, and press OK. 

•  If encryption has been activated, the data protection procedure is active from the beginning of a videoconference. 

•  If this option is selected, the Codec executes the encryption procedure from the beginning of the ISDN connection. 

•  If this option is not selected, the ISDN connection starts in unencrypted mode. Encryption can be activated later at 

any time during the connection. To do this, select the yellow padlock on the status bar and press OK. 

Unprotected calls 
From this drop-down menu you can choose the policy the Codec will apply if the remote terminal is not able to support 
protected calls.  

•  Disconnect – The Codec will not allow connection with a remote terminal that does not support encryption, and 

therefore automatically disconnects. 

•  Ask Confirmation – During the session negotiation phase, the Codec will ask you to confirm that you want to 

establish an unprotected call. 

•  Inform – The Codec will inform you that you are about to establish an unprotected connection by displaying a 

visual warning message. 

•  State – The Codec will notify you that you are about to establish an unprotected call, and once the connection is 

established an open padlock symbol will be displayed on the status bar. 

Length of AES Key (ISDN only)  
From this drop-down menu you can choose (for ISDN connections only) three AES key lengths:  

•  128 bits 

•  192 bits  

•  256 bits 

•  <Auto> (allows optimal choice according to the characteristics of the terminals negotiating the 

videoconference session.)
