The Last String in a Dial Script
The last entry in the Dial Command Script must be a Reply string that indicates that the remote location is ready to begin receiving network packets. This activates the TCP/IP protocol coming from the NETServer.
When connecting to a remote NETServer for example, the final reply string to look for should be “SL/IP” or “PPP”. For other routers, consult the product’s own documentation.
Dial Script Example
The following Dial Command Script is an example of how to establish a connection between two NETServers which have modems supporting the AT dial command syntax:
Send | Reply |
ATDT16155551234\r | CONNECT |
\r | login: |
my_location_name\r | password: |
my_password\r | SL/IP |
The 16155551234 would be replaced by the actual telephone number of the remote modem.
my_location_name would be replaced by the actual user name for your location.
my_password would be replaced by the actual password set up at the remote site for that user name.
