Token Security Authentication 8-3

security authentication token card and a PIN. In addition, the user’s
identifying information must reside on the remote ACE servers for
authentication negotiation to properly take place.
The Netopia Router supports the following user configurations for
security authentication:
Single user, calling a single destination (single session)
Single user, calling multiple destinations (two simultaneous
and separate sessions)
Multiple users, calling a single destination (single session)
Multiple users, calling multiple destinations (two simultaneous

Security authentication components
To properly identify and authenticate an authorized user, the
following are required:
A secret personal identification number (PIN) for each user.
A security authentication token card.
A Security Access Control Module (ACM).
Note: The Netopia Router currently only supports Ascend routers
as ACMs.
An external Netopia Router calling into a designated server. For
example, a telecommuter dialing into a remote site from a
Netopia Router interested in accessing personal email or file
sharing services.
Note: The Netopia Router does not include a security
authentication token card.
