¥ If the guest did not enable Dial Security, the host will not accept the call unless
prompting is enabled on the host I-modem.
¥ If the guest includes a valid password, the host permits a secure connection.
Password Prompting
While the use of Autopass is restricted to U.S. Robotics devices with Dial Security, Pass-
word Prompting allows connections with any guest device, as long as the guest user knows
the correct password.
When host has Password Prompting enabled, it asks guest users for a password. The host
modem checks the received password against each of its active Security accounts.
¥ The host will always respond to a correct Autopass attempt, even if Password Prompting
is enabled.
¥ If the guest sends an invalid password, the host prompts twice more before discon-
necting.
¥ If the guest does not send a password after 60 seconds, the host disconnects.
¥ If the guest sends a valid password within 60 seconds, the host permits a secure con-
nection.
