3.Install and Configure Graphical Remote Control Application — Install graphical remote control application using directions supplied by the software vendor. Configure the host for network TCP/IP access. The client application should also be configured for TCP/IP access, specifying the managed server’s PPP IP address or server name.

4.Test Dial-up Networking and Graphical Remote Control — Once configured, test the configuration by dialing into managed server. If dial-up networking is installed correctly, you should be able to establish a PPP connection with the server. Once connected, you should be able to open a graphics remote control session using the TCP/IP transport.

5.Configure and Enable IRC — Once proper operation with the

operating system has been verified, enable IRC paying close attention to the communication port and modem initialization settings.

6.Test OS Dial-in Capability — Once enabled, you should be able to access either IRC or operating system-based management. Test the configuration by attempting to establish a dial-up networking connection. Wait several minutes after booting the operating system to insure that IRC has had a chance to regain ownership of the modem after the operating system initialization process. If the call does not connect properly, review your IRC configuration settings. See Appendix C for additional troubleshooting information. Test the connection several times, allowing at least 60 seconds to transpire between connections.

7.Test IRC Dial-in Capability — Finally, test the ability to invoke the IRC login prompt by dialing into the server using an ANSI or telnet based client application. Once connected, you should be able to invoke the IRC login prompt by entering three carriage returns. If this attempt fails, wait at least 60 seconds and try again. See Appendix C for troubleshooting information if repeated attempts fail.
