PID Key Management for ASN Mode |
(Secure Wide, Multikey) |
![]()
Enables the use of Physical ID (PID)
Key Management in the radio. This field is automatically enabled and becomes
view-only when the MDC OTAR Enable field is enabled. This
feature applies to secure encryption
mode on a radio-wide basis.
PID key management is a legacy mechanism for managing keys that limits
the radio to 16 keys via Physical IDs.
When disabled, CKR (Common Key Reference)
Key Management is used solely by the radio during secure encrypted communications.
CKR Key management allows
for more than 16 keys to be referenced, and is required to be used with
ASTRO OTAR (Over-The-Air-Rekeying).
