Connecting to the CSM's User Interface Remotely Using a Modem

The CSM's user interface can also be accessed remotely by direct dialing the CSM through an optional modem. A
requirement for a remote modem connection is that you do not have direct connection to the CSM through the Ethernet port
(multiple connections will result in routing and address conflicts). For information on installing and configuring a modem
to the CSM see IM781. If the CSM has a modem with an analog phone line connection, the following procedure describes
how to connect to the CSM.
To connect to the CSM's user interface remotely through a modem, follow this procedure:
1. Install and configure a modem to the dial-in host computer you will be using to direct dial the CSM. The host
computer must have a Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 or Windows XP operation system. Additional information on
setting up a dial-in host computer and modem is available in the "Net Connect Guide" available at
2. Attach the dial-in host's modem to an analog phone line
3. Set the IP address of the dial-in host computer to the IP address listed as the value of the remoteAddr parameter in the
CSM's ras.properties file (default = 192.168.1.111). To configure the CSM to allow connection from a dial-in-host
computer with a different remoteAddr, see IM781 for instructions on editing the CSM's ras.properties file.
4. Using the Dial-Up Networking features of the remote computer enter the phone number of the phone line connected to
the CSM's modem
5. If the Dial-Up Networking asks for the User Name and Password of the dial-up device, enter your CSM user name and
password
6. Dial the CSM
7. When you have made the direct dial connection between your dial-in host and the CSM open Internet Explorer on your
PC
5. In the address bar on the top of your Internet Explorer page, type http://<IP Address>
Where <IP Address> is the IP Address listed in the localAddr property of the CSM's ras.properities file (default =
192.168.1.110).
6. An "Enter Network Password" dialog box will appear (see Figure 3). Log on to the CSM with the your user name and
password. Click OK. The CSM's User Interface Main Screen will appear.
