Setting the IP Address
The IP address is the address used by the Telnet system
to access the DSU/CSU (see Appendix E, IP Network
Addressing Scenarios). For DSU/CSUs using PPP, the IP
address can be negotiated if the network device (e.g. a
router) supports such negotiation. The IP address is
composed of four fields with three digits per field
(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).
The IP address is set for the MODEM port or the COM
port, depending on which one has been chosen as the
Telnet communication link. The example below assumes
that an IP address of 010.155.111.222 is being set for the
COM port. You can use the same principles to assign any
value (between 000 and 255 for each digit field) to the
modem port.
"Procedure
