COMSPHERE 3821Plus Modem
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.
PsWdType xxxx

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.
