Using the Modem’s Security Features
Your Premier 56 modem supports the following security features:
™ Password protection  provides protection against unauthorized dial-up access. See “Password
Protection,” below.
™ Security callback  lets your Premier 56 modem automatically dial a preconfigured telephone
number after answering a call, holding the line for one second, and then disconnecting. See page 13.
™ Remote configuration  allows your Premier 56 modem to be configured from a remote location.
See page 15.
Getting Started
To configure your Premier 56 modem’s security features, you enable security and enter Superuser
Mode.
Enabling Security
To enable security mode, type the command AT$EH=<password> and press the Enter key, where
<password> is the password used to enable the modem’s security feature. The default password is
superuser and is not case-sensitive. For security purposes, we recommend you change the default
security password (see “Changing the Security, Superuser, and Remote Configuration Password” on
page 16).
Entering Superuser Mode
The Superuser can type AT commands that the modem is to execute, including the AT commands used
to configure the modem’s security features and change passwords.
By default, Superuser Mode is disabled. When Superuser Mode is disabled and security is enabled, the
only at commands you can issue are:
™ ATIn to report the requested result according to the command parameter (see page 40)
™ AT&V to display the modem’s current configuration and stored profiles (see page 65)
