Token Security Authentication

To per form security card authentication, each user must have a
security authentication token card and a PIN. In addition, the user’s
identifying information must reside on the remote ACE servers for
authentication negotiation to properly take place.

The Netopia Router supports the following user configurations for
security authentication:

Single user, calling a single destination (single session)

Single user, calling multiple destinations (two simultaneous
and separate sessions)

Multiple users, calling a single destination (single session)

Multiple users, calling multiple destinations (two simultaneous

Security authentication components

To properly identify and authenticate an authorized user, the
following are required:

A secret personal identification number (PIN) for each user.

A security authentication token card.

A Security Access Control Module (ACM).

Note: The Netopia Router currently only supports Ascend routers
as ACMs.

An external Netopia Router calling into a designated server. For
example, a telecommuter dialing into a remote site from a
Netopia Router interested in accessing personal email or file
sharing services.

Note: The Netopia Router does not include a security
authentication token card.
