The RIPM Serial Settings allow you to specify which device is connected to the serial port and how to use it. To access the serial interface, a null modem cable is required.

1. Configuration or Console Login

Do not use the serial port for any special function; use it only for the initial configuration.

2.Modem

The RIPM offers remote access using a telephone line in addition to standard access over a built-in Ethernet adapter. The modem needs to be connected to the serial interface of the RIPM. Connecting to the RIPM using a telephone line means nothing other than building up a dedicated point-to-point connection from your console computer to the RIPM. In other words, the RIPM acts as an Internet Service Provider (ISP) into which you can dial. The connection is established using the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP). Before you connect to the RIPM, make sure to configure your console computer accordingly. For instance, on Windows-based operating systems, you can configure a dial-up network connection that defaults to the correct settings (like PPP). The Modem Settings panel allows you to configure the remote access to the RIPM using a modem. The meaning of each parameter will be described below. The modem settings are part of the Serial Settings panel.

3.Serial-Line Speed

The speed with which the RIPM is communicating with the modem. Most modems available today will support the default value of 115.200bps. If you are using an old modem and discovering problems, try to lower this speed.

4.Modem Init String

The initialization string used by the RIPM to initialize the modem. The default value will work with all standard modems directly connected to a telephone line. If you have a special modem, or if your modem is connected to a local telephone switch that requires a special dial sequence in order to establish a connection to the public telephone network, you can change this setting by using a new string. Refer to the section in your modem’s manual about AT command syntax.
