Method for authenticating at least one ventilator with at least one remote station, wherein the ventilator can connect itself via at least one interface to the remote station, at least one authentication file is stored on the ventilator, the authentication file contains at least one signature code of a signing authority, and a public keycode of the signing authority is known to the remote station, the ventilator sends the authentication file to the remote station when establishing the connection to the remote station, the remote station checks the signature code of the authentication file using the public keycode as to whether the signature code originates from the signing point and the ventilator is authenticated when the remote station recognizes the signature code as originating from the signing authority.
A method for authenticating at least one ventilator with at least one remote station, the ventilator being capable of connecting itself via at least one interface to the at least one remote station, wherein the method comprises storing at least one authentication file on the ventilator, which authentication file contains at least one signature code of a signing authority, a public keycode of the signing authority is being known to the at least one remote station, sending the authentication file to the at least one remote station when establishing a connection to the at least one remote station, the remote station checking the signature code of the authentication file using the public keycode as to whether the signature code originates from the signing authority, and authenticating the ventilator when the at least one remote station recognizes the signature code as originating from the signing authority, and wherein the method further comprises that the at least one remote station has stored thereon an authentication file which comprises a signature code generated by a signing authority and the ventilator is configured to authenticate the remote station via this signature code.
A system comprising at least one ventilator and at least one remote station, wherein the ventilator is configured to establish a connection to the at least one remote station via at least one interface, and wherein at least one authentication file, which contains at least one signature code of a signing authority, is stored on the ventilator, wherein a public keycode of the signing authority is known to the at least one remote station and wherein the ventilator sends the authentication file to the at least one remote station when establishing a connection to the at least one remote station, the remote station checking the signature code of the authentication file using the public keycode as to whether the signature code originates from the signing authority and the ventilator being authenticated when the at least one remote station recognizes the signature code as originating from the signing authority, and wherein at least one signature code of a signing authority is stored on the at least one remote station and the ventilator, and wherein the at least one remote station has stored thereon an authentication file which comprises a signature code generated by a signing authority and the ventilator is configured to authenticate the remote station via this signature code.
