Purpose
PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) Dial-up Networking usernames and passwords are used for
some dial-up connections. The PPP username and password for an alarm station usually
differs from the PPP username and password needed to access a RAS server. The following
situations may apply:
• The Multi SA includes the RAS server in the connection definition.
• See on page 53.
RAS Server

Dial-Up Technical Note
• The Operator to RAS server connection is in front of one or more units. Using a
connection to access a RAS server before using View is illustrated in sections:
•
Using a RAS Server Before Connecting to Units
•
Dial-Up Technical Note
• A unit connecting by dial-up to an alarm station's modem. To automate the process of
a Multi-Media unit sending alarms to the View application over telephone lines, use
Admin to enter the PPP username and password for a PC in the definition of an alarm
station. See
Dial-Up Connection to an Alarm Station
• A unit connecting by dial-up to a RAS server that is in front of a Multi-Media alarm
station. Using an alarm callback that includes a RAS server is illustrated in
Connection to an Alarm Station
There may be situations when a specific user account must have access quickly denied for
a Rapid Eye Multi-Media site (for security reasons, termination, and so on). If your
Multi-Media system is accessed using a laptop, or by many PCs on your network, it could
be inconvenient to physically prevent a rogue user from accessing the Multi-Media
software.
The best solution is to Deny access to sites for the account, as explained in
to a User of Your Multi-Media
account and more effective than changing the account's password.
Stopping a User in Session
On networked units, you can end a rogue user's use of sessions (maintenance, live video,
and so on) by using the Admin and View applications in combination. See
Session on a Networked Multi-Media Unit
Stopping Sessions on Units that Use Modems
Sessions on a Multi-Media unit that is only accessible by dial-up, cannot be interrupted in
any way other than physically intervening. You must either apprehend the user or unplug
the phone line that connects to the Multi-Media unit's modem. For high security needs, a
remotely controlled telephone line switch can be used.
