Security Database Lock Option
From the Security Menu you may elect to LOCK the security database
with the ‘L’ option. When locked, the user cannot change the #E setting
or clear the security database even with the &F. command or power-on
reset with the Mode Switch depressed.
The only way to alter the database or #E selection is to enter the Security
Menu with the security password and unlock the database with the ‘F’
(Free) command.
The current state: LOCKED or FREE is displayed below the Security
Menu.
FShorting out the NOVRAM battery will erase the database but will
result in the modem being only partially functional. Such modems
need to be returned to the factory for re-configuration.
Outdial Disable Option
If modems are to be used only for receiving calls option ‘K’ can be
selected. This does not allow the modem to dial out. If an attempt to do
so, users will be informed that a SECURITY LOCKOUT is in place and
the call will not be successful.
The outdial feature will be useful for system administrators who wish to
control the use of modems within remote offices or restrict modems to
being used for receiving calls only.
Dial Stored Phone Numbers Only Option
Option ‘M’ is similar to Option ‘K’ but restricts the modem to dialing
only those numbers listed in the stored phone number fields as set with
the &Z command.
The stored numbers must then be dialed using the ATDS=X command
where X is the position of the stored number as set with the AT&Z
command.
New stored numbers cannot be added by the user once the dial restric-
tion has been enabled.
