Instructions for Setting Up Password Authentication on INOC-DBA Phones
Effective July 9, 2004 The INOC-DBA phone system will begin using password
authentication in order to control access.
In order to use the INOC-DBA phones after that date you will have to
manually set the userid and password on your phone set to match your
login and password on the INOC-DBA web site. This must be done for
each phone line.
These instructions will take you through the steps for setting the
Authentication Name and Authentication Password on your phone set.
These instructions apply to Cisco 7960 series phones. If you are using
a different phone please follow the manufacturer's instructions
for setting your phone line authentication information.
If you have not already done so, you must choose your login and password
on the INOC-DBA web site.
New users can choose their login/password when they sign up for a
new INOC-DBA account here:
https://www.pch.net/inoc-dba/console.cgi?op=new_account
If you already are in the INOC-DBA database but have not yet
chosen a login/password - typically you're a long time user of
INOC-DBA if this is the case - then you can do so at this URL:
https://www.pch.net/inoc-dba/console.cgi?op=choose_login
All users who are part of the INOC-DBA systam
and who are already in our directory database should do this before
July 9, 2004. New users, please contact
operator@pch.net for instructions.
By default, your phone configuration is locked to prevent accidental
changes. You will have to unlock your phone configuration before you
can change your authentication information.
-
Access your phone Settings menu. The phone Settings menu can be accessed
by hitting one of the buttons to the lower right of your phone screen. The
button is either marked "Settings", or has a picture of a checkbox on it.
-
In the phone Settings menu scroll all the way down, and select item #9
"Unlock Config".
-
Enter your phone settings password. The default phone settings password
is either " **# " or " cisco ".
Don't confuse this with your authentication password - this is a
different password which only protects your phone handset settings from
accidental overwriting.
-
Click "Accept" and the Settings menu will come back up.
-
In the phone Settings menu choose #4 SIP Configuration. You will see
six Line # Settings menu items.
-
In the SIP Configuration menu select #1 Line 1 Settings.
-
In the Line 1 Settings menu choose #3 Authenticaton Name. Hit the "Edit" button.
Enter and save your INOC-DBA login name. This is the same login name you chose
on the INOC-DBA web site.
-
In the Line 1 Settings menu choose #4 Authentication Password. Hit the Edit
button, enter and save your INOC-DBA password. This is the same password you
chose on the INOC-DBA web site.
All six phone lines should have the same Authentication Name and Password as your
account on the INOC-DBA web site.
Reboot your phone by powering it off and on. The phone will fetch the
configuration file from our TFTP server.
Your phone is now set up to use the INOC-DBA authentication server and
should work after we make the switch to using authentication on July 9, 2004.
Thank you for using the INOC-DBA phone services.
