Answer Access Password (VF-Side and DTE-Side Entry Techniques)

Answer Access password security uses two password entry techniques: VF-side password and
DTE-side password entry. A VF-side password consists of DTMF tones and is entered by the
originating caller via the AT command set, the DCP, or manually with an attached telephone.
A VF-side password can be entered with the AT dial command. The following examples illustrate
two ways to enter a VF-side password:
