Key Block Range Configuration Stanza

The <Rangevalue> stanza is used to configure the key block range allocated to the system. As noted in section 5.3.2 - Key Block Ranges, the key block range consists of two elements: a group number and a range number. Both are specified in the <Rangevalue> stanza, as illustrated in the example below:

<Rangevalue>
            <attribute name="groupNumber">
            <value>3</value>
            </attribute>
            <attribute name="rangenumber>
            <value>5</value>
            </attribute>
            </Rangevalue>

Figure 1. Sample Range Stanza

The configuration file can contain more than one <Rangevalue> stanza, with the same structure used for each of the stanzas. This functionality is used to specify multiple key block range allocations if these are required. Please refer to the Multiple Ranges sub-section of section 5.3.2 - Key Block Ranges for further information.

Note that both the group number and the range number are validated by the tool to ensure that the values are acceptable. Please refer to section 5.3.2 - Key Block Ranges for information on valid values.
