Data encryption for a local console on a network:
To use a local console on a network, you are strongly encouraged to install
cryptographic products. For the console data to be encrypted, the iSeries server
must have one of the Cryptographic Access Provider products installed (5722-AC2
or 5722-AC3) and the PC must have one of the Client Encryption products
(5722-CE2 or 5722-CE3) installed. The table summarizes the resulting encryption
level.
