Important Considerations

■The system transmits characters that you have entered as output on the modem port. The system echoes characters that it receives as input on the modem port to the current Console session. Thus, the Console appears to be directly connected to the external modem.

■You may need to change the baud of the modem to match that of your modem port.

Procedure

1From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:

system serialPort configModem

You can now enter commands that support the appropriate parameters for your network. All characters that you enter are transmitted to the modem port until you type the escape sequence in step 2.

2When the modem is configured, enter the escape sequence ~] with no intervening characters or spaces.

Entering the escape sequence breaks the connection to the modem serial port and returns you to the previous Administration Console menu.
