Security Configuration Options
H
VF & 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.
H
No Originate Security
Disables originate security so that a modem can originate a call using AT commands.
H
Enable 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.
