Negotiated IP

IP address associated with the GPRS connection.

Text Mode

Timeout

If you selected Text mode, you can enable logins to time

Logins

out after the connection is inactive for a specified number

 

of minutes. The default is No. This setting only applies to

 

text mode connections. PPP mode connections stay

 

connected until either side drops the connection. Disabled

 

by default.

 

 

Dial-back Number

Users with dial-back access can dial into the SLB branch

 

office manager and enter their login and password. Once

 

the SLB device authenticates them, the modem hangs up

 

and dials them back.

 

Select the phone number the modem dials back on--a

 

fixed number or a number associated with their login. If

 

you select Fixed Number, enter the number (in the format

 

2123456789).

 

 

Dial-in Host List

From the drop-down list, select the desired host list. The

 

host list is a prioritized list of SSH, Telnet and TCP

 

hosts that are available for establishing outgoing

 

modem connections. The hosts in the list are cycled

 

through until the modem successfully connects to

 

one.

 

To establish and configure host lists, click the Host Lists

 

link. (See Host Lists on page 108.)

 

 

PPP Mode

Negotiate IP

If the SLB branch office manager and/or the serial device

Address

have dynamic IP addresses (e.g., IP addresses assigned

 

by a DHCP server), select Yes. This is the default.

 

If the SLB device or the modem have fixed IP addresses,

 

select No, and enter the Local IP (IP address of the port)

 

and Remote IP (IP address of the modem).

 

 

Authentication

Enables PAP or CHAP authentication for modem logins.

 

PAP is the default. With PAP, users are authenticated by

 

means of the Local Users and any of the remote

 

authentication methods that are enabled. With CHAP, the

 

CHAP Handshake fields authenticate the user.

 

 

CHAP Handshake

The host/username (for UNIX systems) or secret/user

 

password (for Windows systems) used for CHAP

 

authentication. May have up to 128 characters.

 

 

Same

Select this option to let incoming connections (dial-in) use

authentication for

the same authentication settings as outgoing connections

Dial-in & Dial-on-

(dial-on-demand). If this option is not selected, then the

Demand (DOD)

dial-on-demand connections take their authentication

 

settings from the DOD parameter settings. If DOD

 

Authentication is PAP, then the DOD CHAP Handshake

 

field is not used.
