In this setup, the SLC 8000 advanced console manager is connected to one or more modems by its device ports. Configure the device ports on the Device Ports > Settings web page by selecting the Dial-in option in the Modem Settings section. Most customers use the modems in PPP mode to establish an IP connection to the SLC unit and either Telnet or SSH into the SLC 8000 advanced console manager. They could also select text mode where, using a terminal emulation program, a user could dial into the SLC unit and connect to the command line interface.
