Establishing A Modem Connection - Avaya X330W2-DS1 User Manual

Chapter 3 Initial Configuration

Establishing a Modem Connection

A PPP connection with a modem can be established only after the X330WAN is
configured with an IP address and net-mask. Also, the parameters used in the
X330WAN must be compatible with the modem's parameters.
All CLI commands mentioned in this section are described in the Chapter 7,
"X330WAN CLI Commands."
To configure a modem interface:
1 Connect a terminal to the console port of the X330WAN as described in
"Connecting the Console Port" on page 19.
2 When prompted for a Login Name, enter the default name root.
3 When prompted for a password, enter the password root. You are now in
Supervisor mode.
4 At the prompt, type: "interface Console""speed" and press Enter.
5 Enter an IP address and subnet mask for the X330WAN to connect via its PPP
interface using the "ip address" <ip address> <mask> command.
Note: The PPP interface configured with the interface console command
must be on a different subnet from the router interfaces.
6 Set the baud rate, ppp authentication, and ppp time out required to match your
modem using the following commands:
"speed" <9600|19200|38400>
"ppp authentication" <chap|none|pap>
"timeout absolute" <time>. The time entered is in seconds.
7 Type: "async mode interactive"
The CLI responds with the following:
Entering the Modem mode will occur automatically upon
proprietary modem-cable plug-in into the console port. The
terminal mode would be restarted automatically upon
insertion of proprietary terminal-cable.
8 Use the DB-25 to RJ-45 connector to plug the console cable to the modem's
DB-25 connector. Plug the other end of the cable RJ-45 connector to the Console
port on the X330WAN module.
9 The X330WAN enters Modem mode.
10 You can now dial into the module from a remote station, and open a Telnet
session to the PPP interface IP address configured in step 5.
