    This scenario shows how to configure an auto dial-in session in RAW mode. The auto dial-in session is opened by Telnet client (embedded in the MultiConnect IP) in RAW-mode to the configured server on a configured port number. Once the PPP link is up with an IP address, the auto dial-in session can be probed as in the Auto Dial-In scenario below.
