KMF Profile Index

(Conventional Personality, Secure)

Selects the Secure Key Management Facility (KMF) Profile to be used while operating in ASTRO OTAR (Over the Air Rekeying) mode. This selection applies while operating on the current Conventional Personality. All ASTRO OTAR parameters specified in the selected KMF profile then apply to the current Conventional Personality.

This field is invalid:

when this personality references a Conventional System (having a System Type of "ASTRO"), which references a Data Profile (having a Data Profile Type of "Conventional & Broadband" or "Broadband Only"),

AND

when the KMF IP Address field is set to "0.0.0.0".

When the ASTRO OTAR field is "Enabled" for the current Conventional Personality, Hardware Key Select values for this Personality use the Secure Hardware Encryption Key References List of the Secure KMF Profile selected in this KMF Profile Index field for the current Conventional Personality.

Be aware that the CPS is actually pointing to the Keys of the Encryption Key List for this selection; individual Keys from the Secure Hardware Encryption Key References List reference the Encryption Key List's Keys from the Hardware Key Reference field. Therefore any key selected when ASTRO OTAR is enabled must first be defined in the Secure Hardware Encryption Key References List.

When the ASTRO OTAR field is "Disabled" for the current Conventional Personality, Hardware Key Select values are directly chosen from the Secure Wide Window's Encryption Key List.

When the Secure Operation field is set to "Hardware", and

when the ASTRO OTAR field is "Enabled" and applicable, and

when the Rx Voice / Signal Type is "ASTRO" or "Mixed Mode", and

when the ASTRO OTAR Enable field is "Enabled", and

when the OTAR Enable field is "Enabled", and

when the Tactical Rekey Enable field is "Disabled", and

when the radio is model / option capable.
