Accessing Cli Via Modem - Avaya G350 Administration

Accessing CLI with a console device
To access the CLI with a console device, use one of the following types of console devices:
•
Serial terminal
•
Laptop with serial cable and terminal emulator software
Connect the console device to the console port (CONSOLE) on the front panel of the Avaya G350 Media
Gateway. Use only an approved Avaya serial cable. For more information about approved Avaya serial
cables, see Overview of the Avaya G350 Media Gateway, 555-245-201.
For more information about the console port, see
page 68.

Accessing CLI via modem

You can access the CLI from a remote location using any standard telnet program. Use a dialup PPP
network connection from a modem at the remote location to either a USB or a serial modem connected to
the console port on the front panel of the G350. Use only an approved Avaya serial cable. For more
information about approved Avaya serial cables, see Overview of the Avaya G350 Media Gateway,
555-245-201.
NOTE:
You can disconnect a telnet session by typing <Ctrl>+]. This is particularly useful if the
normal telnet logout does not work.
Accessing CLI via a USB modem
To access the CLI with telnet through dialup from a remote location using a USB modem:
1
Connect a modem to the USB port on the front panel of the Avaya G350 Media Gateway. Use a
USB cable to connect the modem. It is recommended to use a Multitech MultiModem USB,
MT5634ZBA-USB-V92.
2
Make sure the USB port is properly configured for modem use. For details, see
USB port for modem use
3
From the remote computer, create a dialup network connection to the Avaya G350 Media
Gateway. Use the TCP/IP and PPP protocols to create the connection. Configure the connection
according to the configuration of the COM port of the remote computer. By default, The G350
uses PAP authentication. If your network has a RADIUS server, you can use RADIUS
authentication for the PPP connection. For more information, see
page 32.
4
Open any standard telnet program on the remote computer.
5
Open a telnet session to the IP address of the USB port on the G350. The default IP address of the
USB port is 10.3.0.3 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0. For instructions on how to change the IP
address of the USB port (i.e., the USB interface), see
page 67.
6
Configure the serial connection on the remote computer to match the configuration of the USB
port on the G350. The USB port uses the following settings:
•
baud — 9600
•
data bits — 8
