Security Configuration Options
HVF & DTE
The answering modem is enabled for security. The modems negotiate security using the VF-side
password entry technique protocol. If successful, and the Password Type for this particular VF
password is set for VF_&_DTE, a password is requested from the originating user. If successful, the
modems connect and can pass data.
NOTE: The settings of this configuration option determine 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 or VF_&_DTE settings.
Originate_Secur: No_OrigSec
End No_OrigSec Ena_Orig_Sec
Originate Security Mode. This configuration option is read-only and cannot be changed from the
Configuration branch. The setting of this configuration option can only be changed in the Set Orig Sec group
found in the Security branch.
HNo Originate Security
Disables originate security so that a modem can originate a call using AT commands.
HEnable Originate Security
When using AT commands, the modem will only place a call if a valid password is entered along
with an AT dial command. If the password is not entered, then ERROR is returned to the DTE, and
the dial command is canceled.
NOTE: This configuration option enables or disables security protection used for outbound calls when using
the AT command autodialer function.
