Modem Dialing States

This section describes how each modem state that supports sites operates when sites are
enabled.

Dial In

The SLC 8000 advanced console manager waits for a peer to call the SLC unit to establish a text
(command line) or PPP connection.
For text connections, the user will be prompted for a login and password, and will be
authenticated via the currently enabled authentication methods (Local Users, NIS, LDAP, etc).
The site list will be searched for a site that (a) the Login/CHAP Host matches the name that
was authenticated, (b) Authentication is set to PAP, and (c) the Port is set to None or
matches the port the modem is on.
If a matching site is found, the Timeout Logins parameter configured for the site will be used
for the rest of the dial-in connection instead of the Timeout Logins parameter configured for
the modem. Once authenticated, a CLI session will be initiated, and the user will remain
connected to the SLC 8000 advanced console manager until they either logout of the CLI
session, or (if Timeout Logins is enabled) the CLI session is terminated if it has been idle.
For PPP connections, the user will be authenticated via PAP or CHAP (determined by the
Authentication setting for the modem). For PAP, the Local/Remote User list will be used to
authenticate the login and password sent by the PPP peer, and the site list will be searched for
a site that (a) the Login/CHAP Host matches the name that was authenticated, (b)
Authentication is set to PAP, and (c) the Port is set to None or matches the port the modem
is on. For CHAP, the site list will be searched for a site that (a) the Login/CHAP Host and
