[...] the new firmware has a festive green check mark,
offsetting the red splat -- holiday DTU boot colors just in time for
the holidays.
The red and green marks indicate the state of various security features.
The mark on the right indicates whether the server has authenticated to
the DTU (red=no, green=yes). The mark on the left indicates whether the
DTU has authenticated to the server (green=yes, no mark=no). The lock in
the middle indicates whether network traffic is encrypted (red=no,
green=yes).
The DTU to client authentication feature (the green mark on the left) is
new in SRSS 4.2. The DTU doesn't 'resent' not being asked to
authenticate, so there is no red mark if that feature is off (but it is
on by default, if both sides support it.).
All these things are controlled on the Advanced/Security tab of the
Admin GUI or using the utcrypto(1M) CLI.
Feel free to configure these settings to match the season and enjoy your
boot experience! ;-)
