SECURITY ALERT:
Lucent Technologies has designed the Remote Access feature incorporated
in this product that, when properly administered by the customer, enables the
customer to minimize the ability of unauthorized persons to gain access to
the network. It is the customer’s responsibility to take the appropriate steps
to properly implement the features, evaluate and administer the various
restriction levels, protect access codes, and distribute them only to
individuals who have been advised of the sensitive nature of the access
information. Each authorized user should be instructed on the proper use
and handling of access codes.
In rare instances, unauthorized individuals make connections to the
telecommunications network through use of remote-access features. In such
an event, applicable tariffs require that the customer pay all network charges
for traffic. Lucent Technologies cannot be responsible for such charges, and
does not make any allowance or give any credit for charges that result from
unauthorized access.
Detailed description
Remote Access provides you with access to the system and its features from the
public network. This allows you to make business calls from home or use
Recorded Telephone Dictation Access to dictate a letter. If authorized, you can
also access system features from any on-site extension.
With Remote Access, you can dial into the system using Direct Inward Dialing
(DID), Central Office (CO), Foreign Exchange (FX), or 800 Service trunks. When
a call comes in on a trunk group dedicated to Remote Access, the system routes
the call to the Remote Access extension you have assigned. If DID is provided and
the Remote Access extension is within the range of numbers that can be accessed
by DID, Remote Access is accessed through DID.
Upon access to the feature, you hear system dial tone. If you have administered
your system to require a barrier code or authorization code, the system requires
you to enter it now. When you enter the required codes, the system generates dial
tone. You can now place local or long-distance calls as allowed.
