Remote Administration and Maintenance 
A
The System Administration and Maintenance capability of a Hybrid/PBX or 
Key system is protected by a password.
— Change the default password immediately.
— Continue to change the password regularly.
— Give the password only to people who need it and impress upon them 
the need to keep it secret.
— If anyone who knows the password leaves the company, change the 
password immediately.
If you have a special telephone line connected to your Hybrid/PBX or Key 
system for Remote Administration and Maintenance, you should do one of 
the following:
— Unplug the line when it is not being used.
— Install a switch in the line to turn it off when it is not being used.
— Keep the Remote Administration and Maintenance telephone number 
secret. Give it only to people who need to know it, and impress upon 
them the need to keep it a secret. Do not write the telephone number on 
the Hybrid/PBX or Key system, the connecting equipment, or anywhere 
else in the system room.
If your Remote Administration and Maintenance feature requires that someone in 
your office transfer the caller to the Remote Administration and Maintenance 
extension, you should impress upon your employees the importance of 
transferring only authorized individuals to that extension.
