From 9d171ff59683ba4fdc28b11c6c3f7074292df307 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Shokouhi Date: Tue, 20 Feb 2018 08:07:08 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Small change to recommend adding a network key to the configuration We should consider recommending a network key for all z-wave installations. As users begin to add more and more devices they may not think about adding this later on as the network grows. Many users come to Discord or elsewhere and get confused as to why their Z-Wave device is not functioning correctly and come to find out they needed a network key and to add the device securely. As more and more Z-Wave Plus devices come out there are more security enabled devices as well. All locks and sensors are pretty much security devices. --- source/_docs/z-wave/installation.markdown | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/source/_docs/z-wave/installation.markdown b/source/_docs/z-wave/installation.markdown index 7b40c12bb4a..4a25268bddd 100644 --- a/source/_docs/z-wave/installation.markdown +++ b/source/_docs/z-wave/installation.markdown @@ -53,7 +53,7 @@ usb_path: type: string default: /zwaveusbstick network_key: - description: The 16-byte network key in the form `"0x01, 0x02..."` used in order to connect securely to compatible devices. + description: The 16-byte network key in the form `"0x01, 0x02..."` used in order to connect securely to compatible devices.
