Accessing the CLI via a serial modem

To access the CLI with telnet through dialup from a remote location using a serial modem:
1. Connect a modem to the console port (CONSOLE) on the front panel of the Avaya G250/
G350 Media Gateway. Use an RJ-45 serial cable to connect the modem. It is recommended
to use a Multitech MultiModem ZBA, MT5634ZBA-V92.
2. Make sure the console port is properly configured for modem use. For details, see
Configuring the console port for modem use
3. From the remote computer, create a dialup network connection to the Avaya G250/G350
Media Gateway. Use the TCP/IP and PPP protocols to create the connection. Configure the
connection according to the configuration of the COM port of the remote computer. By
default, The G250/G350 uses PAP authentication. If your network has a RADIUS server,
you can use RADIUS authentication for the PPP connection. For more information, see
Managing login permissions
4. Open any standard telnet program on the remote computer.
5. Open a telnet session to the IP address of the console port on the G250/G350. For
instructions on how to set the IP address of the console port (i.e., the console interface), see
Configuring the console port for modem use
6. Configure the serial connection on the remote computer to match the configuration of the
console port on the G250/G350. The console port uses the following settings:
baud — 9600
●
data bits — 8
●
parity — none
●
stop bits — 1
●
flow control — hardware

Accessing the CLI via a modem connection to the S8300

If the Avaya G250/G350 Media Gateway includes an S8300 Media Server, you can access the
CLI from a remote location by establishing a PPP network connection from a modem at the
remote location to a USB modem connected to the one of the USB ports on the front panel of
the S8300.

In order to access the CLI via the S8300, the PMI of the G250/G350 must be
