Nxt Cleared DTE_Entry VF_Entry VF_plus_DTE
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 configuration 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.
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. 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.
NOTE: If the Set Answer Security option (Answer Security mode) is set to VF_&_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.
