Setting up oBIX credentials in EntsecAsureID

To establish the link between EntsecAsureID and the Obix Network, you must enter the credentials for the oBIX machine-to-machine user.
Prerequisites: You are working on the Photo ID workstation.
  1. Right-click the EntsecAsureID icon (Image) in the system tray and click Settings.
    The Settings window opens.

    The screen capture shows an http:// connection. This type of connection for the machine-to-machine user is not secure and leaves your system vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle attack. To secure this connection, you need CA-signed server certificate for the machine-to-machine user in the station’s Key Store and the CA certificate whose private key signed the machine-to-machine user’s server certificate in the browser trust store. The certificate’s Subject or Common Name (CN) should match the Host name of the computer used to create Photo IDs (usually an IP address).

  2. Configure these properties and click OK.
    Host is http://or https:// followed by the IP address of the computer you are using to create Photo IDs.

    User is the Photo ID machine-to-machine user you created or the user name the migration tool created for you (such as obix, obix1, etc.).

    Password is the password you created for the Photo ID machine-to-machine user.

    EntsecAsureID Port is the port number for oBIX host communication. The default should work although the Windows Firewall may need to be altered to allow the selected port (in this case 3000) to pass through.

    Run On Started should be enabled.
