Accessing the Gateway
You can access the Branch Gateway using the CLI, the PIM, and the Avaya Aura
®
Communication Manager. You can manage login permissions by using and configuring
usernames and passwords, and by configuring the Branch Gateway to use RADIUS
authentication. There are special security features that enable and disable the recovery
password, establish incoming and outgoing Telnet connections, and configure SYN cookies
for preventing SYN attacks.
