A DTE-side password is entered after the modems
have trained, but before a normal connection is
established. The following example illustrates how to
enter a DTE-side password:
TYPE: abc123
PRESS: Enter
Where: abc123 is a 10-alphanumeric character
password. Characters used for DTE-side
passwords are case-insensitive. DTE-side
passwords can be from 1 to 6 characters
in length.
If a valid password is entered, then the modems
connect and data can pass.
Originate Access Password
An Originate Access password is entered by a local
user to gain access to a local 3800 Series modem. This
password is embedded in the AT dial command and
cannot be entered from the diagnostic control panel
(DCP).
The following example describes how to enter an
Originate Access security password:
TYPE: ATD%abc123%T9,8005551234
PRESS: Enter
Where: ATD is the AT dial command.
Percent (%) is the start and stop dial
string command interrupt characters; the
Originate Access password must be
enclosed by these characters.
abc123 is the 10-alphanumeric character
Originate Access password.
T is the Tone (DTMF) dial modifier.
Comma (,) is a pause dial parameter.
98005551234 is the phone number.
Database Table Examples

tables in which the password type is configured for VF

NOTE
The Assigned to column is not
stored in the modem.
Table 12-4 is an example of a database table with
