Configure Dial-In PPP
To enable dial-in PPP access on the Console Server modem port/ internal modem:
Select the System: Dial menu option and the port to be configured (Serial DB9 Port or Internal
Modem Port).
Note
The Console Server's console/modem serial port is set by default to 115200 baud, No parity, 8
data bits and 1 stop bit, with software (Xon-Xoff) flow control enabled. You can modify the baud
rate and flow control using the Management Console. You can further configure the
console/modem port settings by editing /etc/mgetty.config files as described in Chapter 14.
Select the Baud Rate and Flow Control that will communicate with the modem.
Check the Enable Dial-In Access box.
Enter the User name and Password to be used for the dial-in PPP link.
In the Remote Address field, enter the IP address to be assigned to the dial-in client. You can
select any address for the Remote IP Address. However, it and the Local IP Address must both
be in the same network range (e.g. 200.100.1.12 and 200.100.1.67).
