The Security Database Editor
The Security Database Editor module can help you create and maintain a callback security database
for your system. It offers multilevel security for systems that do not use security servers, and
provides flexibility with simple operation for both the system administrator and the dial-in user.
Callback security uses a security database to screen callers. The database contains records of user
IDs with (typically) the user’s full name, the security status of the user (enabled or disabled), the
valid access dates and times for the user, and the type of callback security established for the user
(pass-through, fixed callback, or variable callback). You can create as many databases as you have
space on the management workstation’s hard disk.
Before you set up your security database, you must use the Setup|Modem| General command in
the Manager to select which modems in your system are to accept inbound security calls and which
modems are to be used to call back, if callback is needed.
