Security devices

Avaya provides the following security devices:

Access Security Gateway (ASG)

The Access Security Gateway (ASG) is a built-in authentication feature that offers a more secure alternative to static login passwords for remote access to Avaya IP600. Using an encryption algorithm, the Access Security Gateway uses session-based challenge and response technology to limit access to the Avaya IP600 system’s remote maintenance and administration port, system administration terminal, and NET CON channels. See Installation and Upgrades for DEFINITY ONE Communications System Release 9 and Avaya IP600 Internet Protocol Communications Server (555-233-109) for information on how to administer this feature.

Remote Port Security Device

The Remote Port Security Device (RPSD) is a single-line dial-up port protection system that prevents unauthorized access to a host resource. Host resource dial-up ports are protected by the installation of the RPSD lock on the analog telephone line leading to the port. Access is provided only when the calling party uses the RPSD key, a unit that is installed on the analog telephone line at the calling party’s end.

The RPSD works with all data communications protocols and can be used in the following applications:

~Protecting organizations with remote and home offices that communicate over the public telephone network via dial-up lines

~Safeguarding companies that administer their communication and voice processing systems remotely from a centralized site, helping to ensure that critical network routing information, traffic data, and PBX feature translations are not compromised

~Controlling dial-up access by a supplier that provides remote maintenance services ensuring that only the service provider has access to the maintenance ports.
