Under applicable tariffs, you will be responsible for payment of toll charges.
Lucent Technologies cannot be responsible for such charges and will not make
any allowance or give any credit resulting from unauthorized access.
To reduce the risk of unauthorized access through Remote Administration and
Maintenance, please observe the following procedures:
■ The System Administration and Maintenance capability of a Hybrid/PBX or
Key system is protected by a password.
— Change the default password immediately.
— Continue to change the password regularly.
— Give the password only to people who need it and impress upon them
the need to keep it secret.
— If anyone who knows the password leaves the company, change the
password immediately.
■ If you have a special telephone line connected to your Hybrid/PBX or Key
system for Remote Administration and Maintenance, you should do one of
the following:
— Unplug the line when it is not being used.
— Install a switch in the line to turn it off when it is not being used.
— Keep the Remote Administration and Maintenance telephone number
secret. Give it only to people who need to know it, and impress upon
them the need to keep it a secret. Do not write the telephone number on
the Hybrid/PBX or Key system, the connecting equipment, or anywhere
else in the system room.
If your Remote Administration and Maintenance feature requires that someone in
your office transfer the caller to the Remote Administration and Maintenance
extension, you should impress upon your employees the importance of
transferring only authorized individuals to that extension.
