2.2.9. Step 9: Working with Security Plugins

Admin Console is prepared to work with the Security Plugins, allowing you to subscribe to those Topics just like any other Connext entity.

2.2.9.1. Before Using Security Plugins in Admin Console

To use security in Admin Console, you must install the Security Plugins; for more information, see Security Preferences.

2.2.9.2. Configuring Security in Admin Console

Admin Console uses the Security configuration specified on the Preferences page, under the Security section.

Security preferences

To use the Security Plugins with Admin Console, you must complete the required fields in the Security Preferences dialog. For descriptions of each field and additional information about securing Admin Console, see DDS Security Data Visualization with RTI Administration Console in the RTI Security Plugins User’s Manual.

Following are some additional notes about using the Security Preferences dialog:

  • After completing the fields, select Apply; otherwise, your selected preferences will not be saved or applied.

  • Select Restore Defaults to reset all completed fields.

  • Each file selected must already exist. If the selected file does not exist, the field background color will change to indicate the file is not valid, and the Apply button will be disabled.
