Configuring SecureTrack Rulebase Language Support

Overview

If your device firewall rulebases use a non-English character set in section headings, rule names, or comments, you can enable SecureTrack to display these characters properly.

Configure rulebase language support

1. Open your browser and log into SecureTrack as a SecureTrack Administrator.

2. In the browser address bar, after the IP address, add /stcgitest.htm, for example https://192.168.5.36/stcgitest.htm.

3. Click Edit StConf:

   

4. Click Fetch Current Conf:

   

5. Under <conf>, add:

   <Translation>
   <Codepage_Name>UTF-8</Codepage_Name>
   <Fields>
   <Field>name</Field>
   <Field>Name</Field>
   <Field>header_text</Field>
   <Field>comments</Field>
   </Fields>
   </Translation>

6. At the bottom of the page, click Submit New Conf:

   

SecureTrack will now properly display the character set.

If SecureTrack still does not display the non-English character sets using UTF-8, then replace it with the language-specific Linux codepage number:

1. Find the ANSI number for your language.

   For example, the ANSI number for Korean is: 949. Other ANSI numbers can be found in this table.

   For Chinese, there is more than one ANSI number. To identify the correct type of Chinese, on a computer that correctly displays these characters (in other applications, such as SmartDashboard), open Regional and Language Options (from the Control Panel), and in the Advanced tab, check the current setting for Language for non-Unicode programs.

2. Find the Linux code page string for your language. Open a command line on a Linux host (you can use the SecureTrack host), and run:

   iconv --list | grep <ansi_number>

   where <ansi_number> is the ANSI number you found in the previous step. For example, for Korean, run:

   iconv --list | grep 949

   The result (without the two slashes: //) is the required Linux code page string, which you will need in the following step. If there is more than one result, you need the one with Windows or MS in it. For example, for Korean, the Linux code page string is: MSCP949

   

   In the above code, in place of UTF-8, put the Linux code page string you found in step 2. For example, for Korean, the code would be:

   1
   2
   3
   4
   5
   6
   7
   8
   9

   <Codepage_Name>MSCP949</Codepage_Name>

   <Field>header_text</Field>
   <Field>comments</Field>
