Logging in with Access Security
Gateway
Access Security Gateway (‘‘ASG’’) is an authentication interface used to protect
the system administration and maintenance ports and logins on Avaya
MultiVantage solution. ASG uses a challenge and response protocol to validate
the user and reduce unauthorized access.
You can administer ASG authentication on either a port type or login ID. If you
set ASG authentication for a specific port, it restricts access to that port for all
logins. If you set ASG authentication for a specific login ID, it restricts access to
that login, even when the port is not administered to support ASG.
