PIN Authorization Features
The Personal Identification Number (PIN) Authorization feature lets
the user dial a unique number so that he can:
temporarily restore his telephone’s primary class of service during
non-business hours
change his telephone’s forwarding target from another telephone
call an outside number from a telephone which does not normally
allow external calls
temporarily transfer his class of service to another telephone
Before he can access these features, his password, called a personal
identification number (PIN), must appear in a list of valid PINs stored
at the communications server. His PIN is verified against this list
whenever he tries to use one of these features.
If his PIN is restricted, he cannot use his PIN at any other telephone.
The communications server will accept his PIN only when it is entered
at his telephone. In this case, the system will not let him use two of the
features presented in this chapter: Follow-Me Forwarding and Remote
Authorization. Also see “Personal Identification Number (PIN)” on
page 1-18.
Note:
A user’s PIN is very powerful. He should not disclose it to
unauthorized users.
