Setting the remote console modem options

The computer uses a modem for remote console access. The U.S. Robotics Sportster 33.6 Faxmodem is used in the U.S. and Canada. Outside of the U.S. and Canada, modems are purchased and set up according to local practices.

For instructions about connecting the modem, see Connecting the remote console modem on page 39.

New Sportster 33.6 faxmodems that come from the factory usually work with the CMS without any special option settings. All you have to do is set DIP switches 4 and 8 on the back panel of the modem to the down (ON) position and set all other DIP switches to the up (OFF) position.

After doing this, test the modem for a connection. You may not have to do the procedure in this section.

To set the options on the Sportster 33.6 faxmodem:

1.Set DIP switches 1, 3, 7, and 8 on the back panel of the Sportster modem to the down (ON) position, and switches 2, 4, 5, and 6 to the up (OFF) position.

2.Turn on the remote console modem.

3.At the system console, log in as root.
