Enabling or disabling Callback Security

Callback Security provides a higher level of security against unauthorized access by requiring the connecting user to be at a predefined location when establishing a modem session to the Sentry.

When enabled, Callback Security requires submission of a valid callback password at initial connection. This password is compared to a predefined callback number/password table for a return call by the modem. The modem then terminates the initial connection and returns the call to the predefined number associated with the supplied password and upon reconnection the user is required to resubmit the callback password before proceeding with the Sentry username/password authentication.

The AT#CBS command is used to enabled or disabled Callback Security.

NOTE: To use Callback Security, Auto-answer must be enabled on the calling modem (S0=1).

After successfully logging into the modem with the Setup password, type at#cbs2 and press Enter to enable Callback Security.
