Remote Administration
and Maintenance 1
The Remote Administration and Maintenance feature of your telecommunications
system, if you choose to use it, permits users to change the system features and
capabilities from a remote location.
The Remote Administration and Maintenance feature, through proper
administration, can help you reduce the risk of unauthorized persons gaining
access to the network. However, telephone numbers and access codes can be
compromised when overheard in a public location, or lost through theft of a wallet
or purse containing access information or through carelessness (for example,
writing codes on a piece of paper and improperly discarding them). Additionally,
hackers may use a computer to dial an access code and then publish the
information to other hackers. Substantial charges can accumulate quickly. It is
your responsibility to take appropriate steps to implement the features properly,
evaluate and administer the various restriction levels, and protect and carefully
distribute access codes.
Under applicable tariffs, you will be responsible for payment of toll charges.
Lucent Technologies cannot be responsible for such charges and will not make
any allowance or give any credit resulting from unauthorized access.
To reduce the risk of unauthorized access through Remote Administration and
Maintenance, please observe the following procedures:
