These options affect the performance of your browser and should be set by knowledgeable users. You may want to consult with technical support from your wireless service provider before changing some of these options. Changing gateways When you connect to the Internet, you normally connect through the default WAP gateway. Gateways are servers used to access WAP sites. NOTEGenerally, the gateway is automatically set by your wireless service provider and it may be hidden or locked. Changing this setting can disable your Palm WAP Browser ’s ability to access sites, so please exercise caution if you alter this setting. Tap address to open WAP site Tap Done to close and save message Tap Delete to delete message
Setting advanced options 263 You can check or change the gateway settings from the Gateway dialog box. To access the Gateway dialog box, tap Gateway Settings on the Options menu. Setting advanced options The Advanced dialog box allows you to enable or disable the cache functions, select an access point name, and select a mode. Using cache memory The Cache pick list on the Advanced dialog box allows you to enable or disable the cache memory. The default setting is cache memory enabled. Cache memory stores and displays a previously loaded WAP page rather than reloading the page each time. This enables you to save time in viewing pages, but you might view an older saved page rather than an updated one.

The Mode pick list on the Advanced dialog box allows you to set the WAP stack configuration. There are two standard modes and two secure modes: Standard modes nConnectionless (CL-WSP: Connectionless - Wireless Session Protocol) nConnection Oriented (CO-WSP: Connection Oriented - Wireless Session Protocol) Secure modes nWTLS Connectionless (CL-WTLS-WSP: Connectionless - Wireless Transport Layer Security - Wireless Session Protocol) nWTLS Conn. Oriented (CO-WTLS-WSP: Connection Oriented - Wireless Transport Layer Security - Wireless Session Protocol) Each mode has a port number associated with it: nConnectionless - 9200 nConnection Oriented - 9201 nWTLS Connectionless - 9202 nWTLS Conn.

Tap Mode arrow and select mode Tap OK to accept change
Chapter 18 Using Palm™ WAP Browser 266 Using the security features The Palm WAP Browser uses the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) method to exchange secure messages between you and another party. PKI is based on the use of a password key pair and a signature key pair. Each key pair has one public key and one signed key. The public key can be available to anyone, but you must store the signed key securely. All security of a PKI solution is based on the integrity of the signed key. The public key is exchanged between you and another party using a certificate created and signed by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA). (The process of creating certificates and using a CA is beyond the scope of this chapter.) You can use the same key pair for several certificates. All certificates are stored in the WAP Identity Module (WIM). The WIM is a storage area designed to store certificates, your private keys, and secure session data used to establish a secure connection. Usually the WIM is a smart card. Palm WAP Browser uses a software WIM that has the same functionality. Palm WAP Browser uses the following two protective passwords: nPa s swo r d : Protects the password key pair. This password also protects the WIM and must be entered every time you access any content in the WIM. nSignature: Protects the signature key pair. This signature is used only when you are asked to verify that you accept something asked for by another, such as a bank transfer. Palm WAP Browser allows you to create multiple password and signature key pairs. Each type of key pair is protected by a password or signature that you create. You have only one password and one signature even if you have multiple key pairs. You can change the password and signature at any time. Creating password and signature key pairs To protect your transactions, you need to create a password key pair. If you are signing documents, you will also need to create a signature key pair. IMPORTANTKey generation can take up to an hour. During this time, your handheld appears to be completely frozen and you are not able to use your handheld. You can create a password and signature key pair by opening the Generate Keys dialog box from the Options menu. You select which kind of key pair you want to generate: password or signature. If this is the first time that you have generated the selected type of key pair, you must enter a password or signature to protect access to and usage of the keys. If you have already generated this type of key pair, you must enter the corresponding password or signature to continue the key generation.
