3. Enter the following fields.

Data Settings

Note: Check the modem’s equipment settings and documentation for the proper settings. The attached modem must have the same settings.

Baud

The speed with which the device port exchanges data with the attached serial

 

device.

 

From the drop-down list, select the baud rate. Most devices use 9600 for the

 

administration port, so the device port defaults to this value. Check the equipment

 

settings and documentation for the proper baud rate.

 

 

Data Bits

Number of data bits used to transmit a character. From the drop-down list, select

 

the number of data bits. The default is 8 data bits.

 

 

Parity

Parity checking is a rudimentary method of detecting simple, single-bit errors.

 

From the drop-down list, select the parity. The default is none.

 

 

Stop Bits

The number of stop bit(s) used to indicate that a byte of data has been transmitted.

 

From the drop-down list, select the number of stop bits. The default is 1.

 

 

Flow Control

A method of preventing buffer overflow and loss of data. The available methods

 

include none, xon/xoff (software), and rts/cts (hardware). The default is none.

 

 

Modem Settings

Note: Depending on the State and Mode you select, different fields are available.

State

Indicates whether an external modem is attached to the device port. If enabling,

 

set the modem to dial-out, dial-in, dial-back, dial-on-demand, dial-in/host list, or

 

dial in, dial-on-demand, CBCP Server, and CBCP Client. Disabled by default. See

 

Modem Dialing States (on page 152) for more information.

 

 

Mode

The format in which the data flows back and forth:

 

Text: In this mode, the SLC unit assumes that the modem will be used for

 

remotely logging into the command line. Text mode can only be used for

 

dialing in or dialing back. Text is the default.

 

PPP: This mode establishes an IP-based link over the modem. PPP

 

connections can be used in dial-out mode (e.g., the SLC 8000 advanced

 

console manager connects to an external network), dial-in mode (e.g., the

 

external computer connects to the network that the SLC unit is part of), or dial-

 

on-demand.

 

 

Use Sites

Enables the use of site-oriented modem parameters which can be activated by

 

various modem-related events (authentication, outbound network traffic for dial-

 

on-demand connections, etc.). Sites can be used with the following modem

 

states: dial-in, dial-back, dial-on-demand, dial-in & dial-on-demand, dial-back &

 

dial-on-demand, and CBCP server.
