Using Class of Service (COS) passwords

Class of Service passwords permit controlled access to a system's resources both
by internal and remote users. When you enter a Class of Service password at a
telephone, the restriction filters associated with your Class of Service password
apply, rather than the normal restriction filters. Similarly, when a remote user enters
a Class of Service password on an incoming auto-answer line, the restriction filters
and remote package associated with their Class of Service password apply, rather
than the normal restriction filters and remote package. COS passwords are
programmed by your installer.
Users should memorize their COS passwords instead of writing them down.
Employees' COS passwords should be deleted when they leave the company.
Typically, each user has a separate password. Several users can share a password or
one user can have several passwords.
