This is the fourth page of the Secure Mode Wizard.
 
Item
Description
Current Settings
One of the following will display: None, ENE, GNE, or Proxy Only.
Enable SOCKS Proxy check box
Choose one of the following options:
Port—CTC will use Port 1080 and ignore the configured IIOP port setting. If Enable Proxy Server is subsequently unchecked, the configured IIOP listener port is used.
External Network Element (ENE)—If selected, the CTC computer is only visible to the ONS 15454 where the CTC computer is connected. The computer is not visible to the data communications channel (DCC)-connected nodes. By default, SOCKS proxy is not enabled for an ENE. If SOCKS proxy is disabled, the NE cannot communicate with other secure mode NEs behind the firewall.
Gateway Network Element (GNE)—If selected, the CTC computer is visible to other DCC-connected nodes. The node prevents IP traffic from being routed between the DCC and the LAN port. By default, configuring the secure node as a GNE also enables SOCKS proxy for communication with other secure NEs.
SOCKS Proxy Only—(This mode is not allowed when the user is trying to set the node in secure mode.) If selected, the node can return a list of DCC connected nodes inside the firewall, for which it is proxying, to the CTC. Traffic can be routed between the DCC and LAN port. The PC from which the CTC is launched is visible to the other DCC-connected nodes.
Back
Displays the Backplane Pane.
Finish
Completes secure mode change. Within the next 30 to 40 seconds after clicking Finish, the TCC2P cards reboot. CTC switches to network view, and the CTC Alerts dialog box appears. In network view, the node changes to gray and a DISCONNECTED condition appears. In the CTC Alerts dialog box, click Close. Wait for the reboot to finish. (This might take several minutes.)
Cancel
Cancels circuit creation.
Help
Displays context-sensitive help.
