EditPassWdTable

The Password Table is the modem’s security database.

It contains all essential information for each password

stored in the modem’s nonvolatile memory. The

information associated with each password is known as a

record. Records are identified by an index which is a

numeric name for a single record. A password’s record is

retrieved by entering its index.

The Edit Password Table group allows you to view

and/or change the modem’s security database table. To do

this, you must retrieve a password’s records by selecting

its index. (See Select Index.)

The Edit Password Table group consists of the

following options: Select Index, Password Type, Edit

Password, and Save Edit.

To access EditPassWdTable from Set Access Ctrl,

select EditPassWdTable.

Select Index

Select Index allows a specific record to be retrieved.

Index addresses range from 0001 to 3000. The contents of

this record can be viewed, edited, and saved.

Select Index appears. Press the F2 () key to increment

index values. Press the

key to move the cursor to the

next position.

Continue this sequence until the desired index appears,

and then press Ent.

If an index outside of the range is entered, the message

Index Too Big appears. Choose an index from the

database’s current index range.

After selecting an index, the Edit Password

Table group’s options (Password Type, Edit Password,

and Save Edit?) appear in a series of LCD displays.

Table 7-1 describes the settings of the Edit Password

Table group options.

PsWdType xxxx

Nxt Cleared DTE Entry VF_Entry VF_plus_DTE

Password Type. Indicates whether this index location is configured for VF-side password, DTE-side password, or both.

Cleared displays for an index location that contains no valid entry. Note that this option only identifies the type of

password used. For proper operation, the type of password selected must be consistent with the type of security used.

Refer to the Set Answer Security group option found later in this chapter.

xxxx – Indicates the selected index location.

Cleared – Indicates that the index location does not contain any valid selections and is currently unused.

DTE Entry – Indicates that this index’s password is configured for DTE-side password entry. Special requirements apply

when using DTE passwords if the Set Answer Security option (Answer Security mode) is set to VF_&_DTE or

VF_w/_DTE. Refer to the note following VF plus DTE.

VF Entry – Indicates that this index’s password is configured for VF-side password entry. This selection requires that the

Set Answer Security option (Answer Security mode) be set to VF_&_DTE.

VF plus DTE – Indicates that both layers of password entry are used with this index’s password. This location is

configured so that the answering modem sends a prompt for the DTE-side password after receiving a valid VF-side

password. This setting requires that the Set Answer Security option be set to VF_&_DTE or VF_w/_DTE.

NOTE: If the Set Answer Security option (Answer Security mode) is set to VF_&_DTE or VF_w/_DTE, special

requirements apply in order to use passwords with their type set to DTE_Entry. The originating caller must first

enter a valid VF password. If the VF password entered is configured in the security database with the type

VF_plus_DTE, the user is then required to enter a password configured in the database table with the type

DTE_Entry. In the case of VF_w/_DTE mode, the DTE Entry password must immediately follow the

VF_plus_DTE password in the password table.
