Logging in with Access Security
Gateway
Access Security Gateway (ASG) is an authentication interface used to protect the
system administration and maintenance ports and logins on DEFINITY ECS.
ASG uses a challenge and response protocol to validate the user and reduce
unauthorized access.
You can administer ASG authentication on either a port type or login ID. If you
set ASG authentication for a specific port, it restricts access to that port for all
logins. If you set ASG authentication for a specific login ID, it restricts access to
that login, even when the port is not administered to support ASG.
Authentication is successful only when DEFINITY ECS and ASG communicate
with a compatible key. You must maintain consistency between the Access
Security Gateway Key and the secret key assigned to the DEFINITY ECS login.
For more information about ASG, refer to ‘‘
Using access security gateway’’ on
page 319.
Before you start
Before you can log into the system with ASG authentication, you need an Access
Security Gateway Key, and you need to know your personal identification number
(PIN). The Access Security Gateway Key must be pre-programmed with the same
secret key (such as, ASG Key, ASG Passkey, or ASG Mobile) assigned to the
DEFINITY ECS login.
Verify that the Access Security Gateway (ASG) field on the System-Parameters
Customer Options screen is set to
y. If not, contact your Lucent representative.
