254 Connecting from a Web browser Ways to secure your Web Remote session ■ Symmetric The Web Remote does not support connections to hosts that are running pcAnywhere 11.0.x or earlier when both the Web Remote and host computers are configured for symmetric encryption. See "How the Web Remote works with differing encryption levels" on page 253. 3 In the Algorithm list, select one of the following: ■ RC4 ■ AES This option is only available for symmetric encryption. 4 In the Key length list, select the appropriate key level. This option is only available for symmetric encryption. 5 Check Deny lower encryption to refuse a connection with a host that is running a previous version of pcAnywhere and using a lower level of encryption. 6 Check Deny alternate algorithm to refuse a connection with a host that uses a different algorithm type. 7 Click OK. Using a serial ID to secure a connection on Web Remote You can connect to a host that uses serial IDs for securing connections. Remote users must have the same serial ID embedded in their remote configuration for the host to accept the connection. For more information about serialization, see the Symantec pcAnywhere Administrator's Guide. To use a serial ID to secure a connection on Web Remote 1 In the Symantec pcAnywhere Web Remote window, click Advanced. 2 In the Serial ID box, type the serial ID number that is required to connect to the host. Serial IDs must be a numeric value between 0 and 65,535. You must use the same serial ID as the host.
