implement the features properly, evaluate and program the various
restriction levels, protect and carefully distribute access codes.
Under applicable tariffs, you are responsible for payment of toll charges.
Lucent Technologies cannot be responsible for such charges and will not
make any allowance or give any credit resulting from unauthorized access.
To reduce the risk of unauthorized access through your voice messaging
system, please observe the following procedures:
A voice messaging system (VMS) provides call-answering services and may
provide voice mail services. Each of the following VMS applications connects to
an enhanced T/R port, called a voice messaging interface (VMI) port:
MERLIN Mail Voice Messaging System (no longer available)
MERLIN LEGEND Mail Voice Messaging System (supplies its own ports
with its own module)
Messaging 2000
MERLIN LEGEND Enhanced Service Center
Lucent Technologies Attendant (no longer available)
AUDIX Voice Power (no longer available)
Intuity AUDIX
!
SECURITY ALERT:
Beginning with Release 2.1, an 012 (T/R) or 016 (T/R) port that is
programmed as a generic VMI port can transfer an outside call to an outside
number. Previously, only VMI ports programmed as integrated VMI ports
could do a trunk-to-trunk transfer. A single-line telephone connected to an
integrated VMI port can complete trunk-to-trunk transfers. In Release 3.1
and later systems, the default setting disables trunk-to-trunk transfers from
these ports.
Employees who have voice mailboxes should be required to use
passwords to protect their mailboxes .
The administrator should remove any unneeded voice mailboxes
from the system immediately .
MERLIN LEGEND Mail and Intuity AUDIX have the ability to limit
transfers to subscribers only. You are strongly urged to limit
transfers in this manner .
Monitor SMDR reports or Call Accounting System reports for
outgoing calls that might be originated by voice messaging ports .
