Avaya CMC1 manual Appendix B Access Security Gateway, Using the ASG Mobile

Appendix B: Access Security Gateway

This appendix provides information on how to administer Access Security Gateway (ASG). ASG employs a challenge/response protocol to confirm the validity of a user and reduce the opportunity for unauthorized access. ASG authentication will be imposed for Avaya services logins as indicated below:

●init - all types of access require ASG authentication

●inads - all types of access require ASG authentication

●craft - if accessing remotely, ASG authentication is required.

Note:

Craft login sessions from a direct connect management terminal continue to rely on password authentication.

Using the ASG Mobile

To use ASG Mobile, do the following steps:

1.Double click on the ASG Mobile V1.1 on your desktop and an ASG Mobile V1.1 Login window appears.

2.In the Tech ID field, type your login ID, which is the name of the attached file (without the “.asg”). Your login ID is the same as your Avaya login (or an abbreviated part of it).

3.Type the password twice. Note that the password is case-sensitive.

Note:

Your new password will be sent to you in a separate email.

4.Click the OK button and an ASG Mobile V1.1 Authentication window appears.

5.Use your communications package (for example, ASA, Provision, or Native Configuration Manager) to dial the switch you need to contact.

6.Log into your communications package window as either init, inads, or craft. Instead of a password prompt, a seven-digit (challenge) number appears in the window of your communications package.

7.Move to the ASG Mobile V1.1 Authentication window.

8.Type the 10-digit Product ID in the Equipment ID field. The default ID is 10 zeros (0000000000).

9.Type init, inads, or craft in the Equipment Login field. The craft login ID is the default.
