10.1 TRANSEC Module Overview
The SLM-5650A Satellite Modem is optionally equipped with the TRANSEC Module Interface,
either in standalone operation with the SLM-5650A Base Modem, or in tandem with the optional
Network Processor (NP) Interface module.
The SLM-5650A is fully compatible and interoperable in all specified modes of operation with
KIV-19 Provisional and KG-95-1 Provisional Transmission Security (TRANSEC) equipment
currently used by the Government.
EIA-422 data rates higher than 20 Mbps (for complete interoperability with the KG-
95-1) are provisional.
For either configuration, the TRANSEC Module Interface provides a proxy function of HTTPS
connections to the Base Modem and the NP Interface; a secure HTTPS connection to the
TRANSEC Module therefore enables user access to all Base Modem and/or all NP M&C
parameters securely through this indirect proxy connection. The Secure Management interfaces
supported by the TRANSEC Module Interface are summarized as follows:
Base Modem Network Processor (when installed) TRANSEC Module
HTTPS Proxy via TRANSEC Module HTTPS
SSH
SNMPv3
HTTPS (Proxy via TRANSEC Module)
HTTPS
SSH
When the TRANSEC Module Interface is installed, Management Security is mandatory and
therefore security is always enabled: Network management M&C limitations that are enacted
when High Level Security is in effect therefore always apply.

INTERFACE or Chapter Sect. 8.6 NETWORK PROCESSOR (NP) HTTP/HTTPS
