Loss of an ASG key
Users who lose their ASG key must notify the system administrator immediately.
The administrator, in turn, must do the following:
■ Modify any logins associated with the lost ASG key. See the
Administrator’s Guide for Avaya™ Communication Manager, 555-233-506.
for information on changing your PIN.
■ If the login is no longer valid, at the prompt, type remove login xxxx
(xxx = alphanumeric login ID) and press Return to remove the invalid login
from the system.
■ To keep the same login, change the secret key associated with the login to
a new value.
■ Using the new secret key value, re-key devices that generate responses
and interact with the login.
Interactions of ASG
■ Customer access INADS port
If access to the INADS port is disabled on a system-wide basis,
administering access to the SYSAM-RMT or INADS port through the ASG
feature does not override the INADS port restriction. Administration does
not prohibit assignment of ASG to the SYSAM-RMT or INADS port.
However, in a configuration where this method of access is blocked, you
will be denied access to the system through the SYSAM-RMT or INADS
port even if you attempt to access the port using a valid ASG login ID.
If access to the INADS port has been disabled on a login basis,
administering access to the SYSAM-RMT or INADS port via the ASG
feature will not override the INADS port restriction.
■ Login administration
The standard user interface for Communication Manager, MultiVantage™
Software, and DEFINITY ECS login administration has not been modified
by ASG. Also, the standard login user interface is maintained in cases
where ASG parameters have not been administered for the login.
■ Security violation notification (SVN)
ASG does not support an interface to the SVN feature. Session rejection
events do not appear in the monitor security-violations login report and
referral calls are not spawned in the event that the number of rejected ASG
sessions exceeds the threshold/time interval criteria imposed by the SVN
feature.
