counterLength
Information type
Serial numbers
Syntax
"counterLength": no_of_charsParameters
| The length the modified production counter in number of characters (integer). |
For use with
The product configuration file for the eSecIP Professional and eSecIP Standard editions.
Description
Use this field to define the length in number of characters of the modified production counter value that will be inserted into the serial number string by the Security Appliance during production. Make sure that the length value provides the counter with the necessary padding so that the total length of the serial number does not change for the lifetime of the product package. For example, if the PPKG count (see count) is 1000, then no_of_chars should at least be 4 so that the the first serial number becomes, for instance, SN-0001xyz, the tenth serial number SN-0010xyz, etc.
This field is mandatory in a serialNumbers configuration object.
Examples
"counterLength": 7
The modified production counter will maintain an unchanged serial number length until the counter exceeds seven characters in length.
