Security of Your System:
Preventing Toll Fraud
As a customer of a new telephone system, you should be aware
that there is an increasing problem of telephone toll fraud.
Telephone toll fraud can occur in many forms, despite the
numerous efforts of telephone companies and telephone
equipment manufacturers to control it. Some individuals use
electronic devices to prevent or falsify records of these calls.
Others charge calls to someone else’s number by illegally using
lost or stolen calling cards, billing innocent parties, clipping on to
someone else’s line, or breaking into someone else’s telephone
equipment physically or electronically. In certain instances,
unauthorized individuals make connections to the telephone
network through the use of remote access features.
Common carriers are required by law to collect their tariffed
charges. While these charges are fraudulent charges made by
persons with criminal intent, applicable tariffs state that the
customer of record is responsible for payment of all long-distance
or other network charges. Lucent Technologies cannot be
responsible for such charges and will not make any allowance or
give any credit for charges that result from unauthorized access.
To minimize the risk of unauthorized access to your DEFINITY
ECS:
nWhen possible, restrict the off-network capability of off-
premises callers, using calling restrictions, Facility Restriction
Levels, and Disallowed List capabilities.
nWhen possible, block out-of-hours calling.
nFrequently monitor system call detail reports for quicker
detection of any unauthorized or abnormal calling patterns.

nLimit Outcalling to persons on a need-to-have basis.
The DEFINITY ECS, through proper administration, can help you
reduce the risk of unauthorized persons gaining access to the
network. However, phone numbers and authorization codes can be
compromised when overheard in a public location, lost through
theft of a wallet or purse containing access information, or when
treated carelessly (writing codes on a piece of paper and
improperly discarding them).
Additionally, hackers may use a computer to dial an access code
and then publish the information to other hackers. Substantial
charges can accumulate quickly. It is your responsibility to take
appropriate steps to implement the features properly, to evaluate
and administer the various restriction levels, and to protect and
carefully distribute access codes.
Under applicable tariffs, you will be responsible for payment of toll
charges. Lucent Technologies cannot be responsible for such
charges and will not make any allowance or give any credit
resulting from unauthorized access.

 nRinger Equivalence Number (REN). The REN is used to
determine the number of devices that can be connected to the
telephone line. Excessive RENs on the line can result in the
devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but
not all, areas the sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5.0).
To be certain of the number of devices that can be connected
to the line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local
telephone company to determine the maximum REN for the
calling area.
 nDisconnection. You must also notify your local telephone
company if and when this equipment is permanently
disconnected from the line(s).
