NetLinx Security - Web Server
The following graphic illustrates the Ports which can be enabled for the validation of
rights by using a valid user name and password. When one of the above options is
enabled, the Master then requires the entry of a valid user name and password to validate
rights for that action and then grant or deny access.

Feature Description
ICSP Connectivity: This selection determines if a user name and password is
required prior to communication with a target NetLinx Master via
an ICSP connection using any transport method (TCP/IP, UDP/IP,
and RS-232) (see FIG. 42).
• If this access is enabled and the user is not logged-in, when the
user attempts to connect, the authentication fails and displays
an “Access not allowed” message.
• This feature allows communication amongst various AMX
hardware and software components. This feature works
in-tandem with the Require Encryption option to require
that any application or hardware communicating with the
Master must provide a valid user name and password.
• Refer to the ICSP Authentication section below for more
detailed information on how the Master authenticates.
Require Encryption: Requires that any data being transmitted or received via an ICSP
connection (among the various AMX products) be encrypted and
that any application or hardware communicating with the Master
over ICSP must provide a valid user name and password
