Introduction

The PC user (near-end) may configure and verify status of the remote 3088 (far-end) via a Remote Console session. The PC user must log onto the 3088 (near-end) unit to establish a remote console session. Once done, the remote 3088 (far-end) appears as a unit which is locally connected through the RS-232 console port. All commands are transmitted over the G.SHDSL link in the EOC channel.

Establishing a Remote Console Session

How to Connect

The following steps are to establish a connection to the remote 3088 (far-end) via Remote Console Session (RCS):

1.Configure a terminal emulation program (e.g., Hyperterminal) on PC (near-end) for 19.2 kbps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, no flow control. Connect it to the RS-232 console port of the 3088 (near-end).

2.At the password prompt, log in to the near-end Model 3088.

3.Ensure that a DSL link is established. You can verify an established DSL link by using the system show sta- tus command or by checking that the DSL LED is solid green. Upon executing the show status com- mand, the dsl link state is shown as success if the DSL link is established.

4.At the command prompt, enter the command remote console.

5.Wait for the message Console: Remote console connection established.

If a DSL link is not established, or for some other reason the 3088 (far-end) does not respond in a rea- sonable amount of time, the following message appears: Console: Remote console timed out trying to con- nect. Enter the command remote console again.

If 3088 (Far End) already has an active remote console session open, you will see the message Console: Remote console connection request rejected. This can also happen if the remote 3088 (far-end) has an estab- lished remote console session with the local 3088 (near-end) which has timed out.

6.Enter the password at the password prompt for the remote console session.

Note The passwords for a local console session of the 3088 (near-end) and the remote console session of the 3088 (far-end) should be different for the pur- pose of security.

7.You should now be logged into the remote 3088 (far-end) via the remote console session. The communi- cation with the remote 3088 (far-end) is essentially the same as having a local console connection.
