Using a VTL Password 109
Using a VTL
Password
If you want to allow users on one NBX system to place VTL calls to
another NBX system and then place long-distance (toll) calls from that
location (this is known as hop off), you can configure a VTL password.
When an NBX system receives a VTL call from a user on another NBX
system, it can allow that user to make long-distance calls if the incoming
VTL call contains the password. Otherwise, such calls are not allowed. If
you set up two classes of VTL calls (with and without passwords), you can
permit or disallow hop off.
To enable an NBX system to handle incoming hop off calls , use the NBX
NetSet utility to create or modify a VTL password. See How to Configure
a VTL Password. To enable an NBX system to send hop off VTL calls,
configure the dial plan to include the VTL password. See Configuring VTL
Passwords in the Dial Plan.
How to Configure a
VTL Password
For each NBX system that can receive VTL calls, you use the NBX NetSet
utility to configure a local system VTL password.
To configure the password:
1 In the NBX NetSet - Main Menu window, click System Configuration .
2 Click the Security tab. See Figure 41.
