The administrator can log into the Console port of a remote switch using a
modem through PSTN (public switched telephone network) if the remote switch is
connected to the PSTN through a modem to configure and maintain the switch
remotely. When a network operates improperly or is inaccessible, you can log into
the switches in the network in this way to configure these switches, to query logs
and warning messages, and to locate problems.
