RLC Installation and Administration Guide 21
June 2005 RLC description
You can configure a multi-user port to allow one user to access the same port
from multiple locations. This feature can give one person access the same port
from both the corporate
office and the home office. Refer to the Installation and
Administration Guide for your specific Remote Gateway 9100 Series unit for
details.
Multiple security levels
The RLC allows you to choose from three levels of protection from
unauthorized access to your host PBX through the Remote Gateway 9100 Series
system. Select one of the following security levels to regulate usage of corporate
telecommunications resources:
„
Level 1, no security
When you set RLC security to security level 1, the RLC allows all calls to
route through the host PBX, regardless of source.
Note: Level 1 is the RLC’s default security level.
„
Level 2, caller ID security
When you set RLC security to security level 2, the RLC does the following:
a. It compares the caller ID of the incoming call against the caller IDs
configured for this remote unit.
b. It denies PBX access to this call if the caller ID does not match any of
those in this unit's List of Caller IDs.
For the required steps to configure security level 2 on your RLC, refer to
“Remote connection configuration” on page 197.
Note: Level 2 security is not applicable when using Remote Gateway 911x
series units with the RLC.
„
Level 3, provisioned security
When security is set to level 3, depending on the unit that initiated the call,
the following call verification occurs:
a. If a remote unit calls the RLC, the RLC compares its Inbound security
ID with this remote unit’s Outbound security ID. If they match, the RLC
accepts the call, otherwise, it rejects the call.
