4. Security 4.1 INTRODUCTION Each service that the server provides can be configured to require: How to use BUD software • Authorization—the server operator must acknowledge all connection attempts before a connection is established. • Authentication—the server requires a Personal Identification Number (PIN, also referred to as a “passkey”) code or a Link Key before a connection is established. • Encryption—all data sent between the Bluetooth client and Bluetooth server is encrypted.
4.4 ENCRYPTION Encrypting translates data into an unreadable format using a secret key or password. Decrypting the data requires the same key or password that was used to encrypt it. How to use BUD software Encryption in Hassnet Bluetooth Software is based on the same passkey or Link Key that is used for Authentication. If Authentication is not enabled the key is not available and Encryption will not take place. To use Encryption, Authentication must be enabled.
4.7 PAIRING DEVICES Pairing allows you to avoid entering access information each time a connection is attempted. Paired devices share a unique Link Key, which they exchange when How to use BUD software connecting. The mate of a pair will always appear in My Bluetooth Places, even if the mate is not turned on or is out of connection range.
4.8 PASSKEY A Passkey is an alphanumeric string up to 16 characters in length. Passkeys are also called PIN codes, or Personal Identification Numbers. How to use BUD software In Hassnet Bluetooth Software, passkeys are used in the Authentication and Encryption process. 4.9 SECURITY REQUEST DIALOG BOX A Bluetooth Authorization or Bluetooth Passkey Request dialog box may appear (depending on security settings) when a connection is attempted if either Authorization or Authentication is enabled.
• Click the Advanced button • In the expanded dialog box, select the services that the connecting device is How to use BUD software 66 authorized to use. When a service is selected, that service will NOT require authorization in the future (no prompt will appear when a connection is attempted). Regardless of whether the main dialog box is for Authorization or Authentication, these options pertain to Authorization; they do not affect Authentication. • Click the Authorize or Authenticate button.
5. Troubleshooting 5.1 CANNOT CONNECT TO A PAIRED DEVICE: Paired devices are always displayed in My Bluetooth Places, even if the remote device How to use BUD software is out of range or not powered up. Verify that the remote member of the pair is within radio range and powered up and then attempt the connection again. 5.2 CANNOT DISCOVER SERVICES ON AN UN-PAIRED REMOTE DEVICE: The remote device may not be powered up or may be out of range. • Verify that the remote device is powered up.
