Basic Configuration
In both the Text Interface and Web Browser Interface, the Callback Security Menu offers
the following options:
• Callback Enable: This prompt offers five different configuration options for the
Callback Security feature: (Default = On - Callback (Without Password Prompt.)

Off: All Callback Security is disabled.

On - Callback (Without Password Prompt): Callbacks will be performed for
user accounts that include a Callback Number, and the login prompt will not be
displayed when the user’s modem answers. If the account does not include a
Callback Number, that user will be granted immediate access and a Callback will
not be performed.

On - Callback (With Password Prompt): Callbacks will be performed for user
accounts that include a Callback Number, and the login prompt will be displayed
when the user’s modem answers (accounts that include a Callback Number will
be required to re-enter their username/password when their modem answers.) If
the account does not include a Callback Number, then that user will be granted
immediate access and a Callback will not be performed.

On - Callback ONLY (Without Password Prompt): Callbacks will be performed
for user accounts that include a Callback Number, and the username/password
prompt will not be displayed when the user’s modem answers. Accounts that
do not include a Callback Number will not be able to access command mode via
modem.

On - Callback ONLY (With Password Prompt): Callbacks will be performed
for user accounts that include a Callback Number, and the username/password
prompt will be displayed when the user’s modem answers (users will be required
to re-enter their username/password when their modem answers.) Accounts that
do not include a Callback Number will not be able to access command mode
via modem.
• Callback Attempts: The number of times that the AFS-16 will attempt to contact
the Callback number. (Default = 3 attempts.)
• Callback Delay: The amount of time that the AFS-16 will wait between Callback
attempts. (Default = 30 seconds.)
Notes:
• After configuring and enabling Callback Security, you must then define a
callback phone number for each desired user account (as described in
Section 5.5) in order for this feature to function properly.
• When using the "On - Callback (With Password Prompt)" option, it is
important to remember that accounts that do not include a callback number
will be allowed to access command mode without callback verification.
