You can connect a serial modem to the Avaya G250 Media Gateway. You can connect either a
USB or a serial modem to the Avaya G350 Media Gateway. A USB modem must be connected
to the USB port on the G350 chassis. A serial modem must be connected to the console port
(CONSOLE) on the G250 or G350 chassis.

Both the USB port and the console port require configuration for modem use. You can configure
the ports for modem use via the Avaya IW or the GIW. For details on using a modem with the
G250 or G350, see Installation and Upgrades for the Avaya G250 Media Gateway, 03-300434

This chapter explains how to use the CLI to configure the console and USB ports for modem
use.

Configuring the USB port for modem use (G350 only)

By default, the USB port is not enabled. To enable the USB port, you must enable the USB
interface. Use the interface usb-modem command to enable the USB interface. Use the no
form of this command to disable the USB interface. The no form of the interface usb-modem
command also resets the interface to its default parameter values. These values are:
Interface status — down
●
PPP timeout — None
●
PPP speed — 38,400 bps
●
To set the USB port's parameters, use the following commands in USB interface context:
Use the async reset-modem command to reset the connected modem. You can use
●
this command from within an active PPP session over the USB modem.
Use the speed command to set the PPP baud rate to be used by the USB port when
●
connected to a modem (in bits per second). Options are 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and
115200. The default baud rate is 38400.
