The Security String(s) Configuration screen (#110) supplies
the security string required by the Dial ID protocol for the node
you are configuring. (Note that the security string is not required

the [Go To Security] function key at the preceding

path name:
@NETXPORT.NI.NIname.PROTOCOL.DIAL.SECURITY
in the Command window of any screen and press the [Enter]
key, where NIname is a configured point-to-point
NI.
