Security Password Entry Techniques

The previous sections described how to set up and configure your network for dial access security. Once configured and enabled, you must now supply a password to originate or answer a call.

The following examples demonstrate how to enter an Answer Access security password string and an Originate Access password string. Note that dial access security messages, that may appear on the LCD, are listed in Table 4-3 in Chapter 4.

Answer Access Password (VF-Side and DTE-Side Entry Techniques)

Answer Access password security uses two password entry techniques: VF-side password and DTE-side password entry. A VF-side password consists of DTMF tones and is entered by the originating caller via the AT command set, the DCP, or manually with an attached telephone.

A VF-side password can be entered with the AT dial command. The following examples illustrate two ways to enter a VF-side password:

ATDT5551234W12345678#

or

ATDP5551234T@12345678#

PRESS: Enter

Where: ATD is the AT dial command.

P and T are Pulse dial and Tone (DTMF) dial modifiers.

5551234 is the phone number.

W is the second dial tone dial modifiers.

@is the wait for quiet answer dial modifiers.

12345678 is the password. VF-side passwords must consist of 1±8 decimal digits.

#is the password terminator character.

NOTE

While pulse dial can be used to originate the call, DTMF tones must be used for the password. This can be accomplished by using the P and T modifiers appropriately. Refer to the Dial command in Chapter 13, AT Command Set and S-Registers, for more information about modifiers.

Some originating modems may not recognize the W modifier as a wait for second dial tone. If your call disconnects due to a VF Password Timeout or an Unknown VF Password, first verify that the answering 3800Plus modem's VF Prompt Type is set for 2nd Dial Tone. Next, verify that the Dial Tone Detect configuration option in the originating modem is enabled. Third, insert several Pause (,) modifiers into the dial string instead of the W modifier. (For the 3800Plus modem, each Pause, which is determined by the Pause Time configuration option (S8), is equal to 2 seconds.) This allows a delay between the processing of the phone number by the answering modem and the transmission of the VF-side password by the originating modem.
