Communication Manager Maintenance Object Repair Procedures<br />

5. Use enable login to enable a login that has been disabled, and to retire any login<br />

security violation alarms associated with the login ID.<br />

6. To use enable login to enable a login and/or retire alarms, use a login ID with greater<br />

service level hierarchy permissions.<br />

7. Access to enable login is controlled through the Administer Permissions field on the<br />

Command Permission Categories screen. Set the Administer Permissions field to y to<br />

access enable login.<br />

8. The Port alarm report field identifies the port where the final invalid login attempt, involving<br />

the alarmed login ID, was detected.<br />

9. The Svc State alarm report field will be set to OUT if the login ID is in the disabled state as<br />

a result of detection of a security violation involving the login ID. Once the login ID has been<br />

enabled, the field will be set to IN.<br />

10. The source or reason of the failed login attempts should be identified and the cause<br />

corrected prior to re-enabling a login ID and/or retiring any alarms associated with the login<br />

ID. The cause may be something as innocuous as the failure of <strong>Avaya</strong> services automatic<br />

login software, to something as insidious as a hacker attempting to gain access to the<br />

switch system management interface.<br />

Prior to retiring an SVN alarm and enabling the associated login ID, use monitor<br />

security-violations login to access information about the invalid login attempts that<br />

caused the security violation. This information can be useful in determining the source of the<br />

invalid attempts and analyzing why they occurred.<br />

Use list logins to see status information about logins on the system. If a login has been<br />

disabled as a result of a security violation, the status is svn-disabled.<br />

Procedure to Retire SVN Alarm<br />

To retire a SVN alarm:<br />

1. Enter enable login loginID.<br />

The login ID associated with that alarm is displayed in the Alt Name field of the alarm report<br />

and the alarm is retired.<br />
