Managing Dial Services

Overview

Introduction

Configuring dial services is similar in concept to configuring a LAT service or Telnet listener. You define a service with a specified configuration that dictates how the user can operate the dialer.

Before you begin any dialer management, be sure to:

Install the latest software image on the access server and all load hosts.

Read the release notes.

Know what devices and cables are connected at the various ports.

Enter the SET PRIVILEGED command for your port.

Check if the current values or default values are appropriate.
