Rules for Using Passwords and
Password Commands (MPP)
• Memory locations 0 and 2-9
may be used for storing phone
numbers; locations 2-9 may
be used to store passwords.
• The entire command string,
including the AT &Z
command, cannot exceed
40 characters.
Passwords
• Passwords and commands
may be entered in capitals or
lowercase letters. (However,
they will be stored and
subsequently displayed as
capitals.) Do not include
number or spaces.
• For MPP without callback, /
must be the first character in a
storage location; for MPP with
callback operation, a phone
number must be listed first in a
storage location.
• Special characters (! @ ?, etc.)
may be used for passwords
entered via the DTE interface,
but these characters cannot be
entered via the modem's front
panel.
• A phone number cannot be
stored after /.
94
Commands
• Only one command (/A, /P,
or /U) can be stored in each
memory location.
• Do not leave a space after a
command.
• When using the /U command,
do not include spaces or
control characters in the
specified text string.
4.16 How to Use Password
Commands
To Establish or Change the
Administrative Password:
For greatest security, an
administrative password should
be used. If implemented, the
administrative password controls
access to the Hayes-compatible &V
and &Z commands. These
commands are required to view
or modify the modem's security
configuration (as explained in
the following sections).
To establish or change an
administrative password:
Enter AT &Z1=/ASECURITY
but replace SECURITY with
the password of your choice.
