specific features depends on the COS of the extension and the COS for the switch. 
Modem Pooling is provided to ensure general availability of off-net data-calling 
services.
Security
There are two areas where unauthorized use may occur with this feature: 
unauthorized local use and remote access.
!
SECURITY ALERT:
Unauthorized local use involves unauthorized users who attempt to make 
calls from a PC. The PC software has a security setting so users can place 
the PC in Security Mode when it is unattended. You can also assign 
Automatic Security so that the administration program on the PC is always 
active and runs in Security Mode. This mode is password-protected.
!
SECURITY ALERT:
Remote access involves remote access to the PC over a data extension. 
Remote users can delete or copy PC files with this feature. You can 
password-protect this feature. Consult the 
BCS Product Security Handbook 
for additional steps to secure your system and to find out about obtaining 
information regularly about security developments.
Considerations
Use the Function Key Module of the 7405D with PC Interface.
BRI terminals normally are initializing terminals and require you to assign 
an SPID. The PC/ISDN Platform (Group 2), in a stand-alone configuration, 
is a noninitializing BRI terminal and does not require you to assign a SPID.
— Set a locally-defined terminal type with General Terminal 
Administration
— Define the terminal type as a noninitializing terminal that does not 
support Management Information Messages (MIM).
— Assign the PC/ISDN Platform with an associated (initializing) 
ISDN-BRI phone (such as an ISDN 7505) using a SPID.
— Assign the station (using a locally-defined terminal type) to take full 
advantage of the capabilities of the PC Interface. This terminal type 
is also noninitializing with no support of MIMs.
