Security Configuration Options

DTE_PW_TermChar: 013

Nxt ￿ 013

DTE Password Termination Character. Allows you to change the ASCII character used to indicate the end of a password or User ID entered by an originating user. This character can be set to any ASCII value from 0 to 47, 58 to 64, 91 to 96, or 123 to 127.

The factory default is 13 (ASCII carriage return).

DTE_PW_BkSpChar: 008

Nxt ￿ 008

DTE Password Backspace Character. Sets the character that is used to perform a backspace in security mode. This character can be set to any ASCII value from 0 to 127.

The factory default is 08 (ASCII backspace).

Get_User_ID: Disable

Nxt Disable Enable

Get User ID. Determines whether the remote user is prompted for an NMS-defined logon ID once the modems have completed initial handshaking. For consistent operation from the remote user's viewpoint, all modems in a modem group must use the same setting.

Disable ± The user is prompted only for a password (if required by the setting of Answer Security Mode or the configuration of the VF-side password).

Enable ± The user is prompted for a login ID and then a password (if required by the setting of Answer Security Mode or the configuration of the VF-side password). NMS sends a disconnect command to the local modem if the login ID is invalid.

The factory default is Disable.

NMS_Reporting: 00

Nxt ￿ 00

NMS Reporting. Determines whether and how dial access security events are reported to the NMS controller. The possible values, 00±15, represent a bit map. The bits are normally set using the NMS controller.

The value of NMS_Reporting is not affected by loading a factory default template. The initial value when the modem is shipped is 00.

Answer_Secur: No_Answ_Sec

Nxt No_Answ_Sec DTE_Only VF_&_DTE VF_w/_DTE

Answer Access Security Mode. This configuration option is read-only and cannot be changed from the Configure branch; it can be changed only from the Security branch.

The setting of Answer Security determines the type of access security protection provided by the modem. It can be disabled using the No_Answ_Sec setting, or it can be enabled with the DTE_Only, VF_&_DTE, or VF_w/_DTE settings.

The factory default is No_Answ_Sec.
