By default, no encrypts the channel is configured.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

If the DCN channel between a GNE and an NE is not encrypted, the channel is prone to attacks. To encrypt the channel to the NE with a specified NE ID, run the dcn encrypt command.

Precautions

This command is supported only on the admin VS.

To delete the encryption configuration for the channel to the NE with a specified NE ID, run the undo dcn encrypt neid neid command on the NE and then on the GNE. Otherwise, the NE fails to be managed by the GNE.

Example

# Encrypt the channel to the NE with a specified NE ID.
