4. Using Table 1, identify the correct modems that you need to add in Remote
Access Service for your Operations Console configuration.
Important: You may have to add more than one modem in Remote Access
Service to satisfy your intended configuration.
Under certain circumstances, such as when installing Windows NT and
Remote Access Service, you may have had to install a nonexistent modem. If
so, any modem you intend to use with Operations Console may not show up
in the Add RAS Device window even though it was previously installed. In
these cases, you will need to Remove the previously installed modem from
Remote Access Service, and later from the Modems folder, since it may be on
the same COM port. In this way, the intended modem is made available to be
selected. Remote Access Service does not allow more than one modem for the
same COM port.
