WIM PIN settings
WIM (WAP Identity Module) is used for performing security
functions, especially to store and process information needed for
user identification and authentication. It is a tamper-resistant
store for private keys, certificates and other items that may
require a PIN for access or modification.
The
WIM management
dialog consists of a PIN choice list and a
WIM items list.
You can select a PIN from the PIN choice list. The WIM items
list changes content dynamically, displaying only the keys that
are protected by the selected PIN and also have an associated
certificate. Other keys that are protected by the selected PIN but
do not have an associated certificate are not shown in the WIM
item list. This is the case when WIM PIN (PIN-G) is selected.
Note The PIN-G applies to the whole WIM and any items that
do not have a different PIN. This means that no specific items on
the WIM are linked to PIN-G.
You can change status of a PIN:
• Enable PIN A PIN code that is enabled is requested for
authorisation of an operation. To proceed with the operation
you must enter the PIN code.
• Disable PIN A PIN code that is disabled is not requested to
authorize an operation to proceed.
To change the PIN code
1. Select the PIN you want to change from the choice list.
2. Select

If a PIN code has been blocked, you must unblock it before it
can be used again. Select the PIN and select
