Miscellaneous Configuration Options — Multiport Mode l
VF_Prompt_Type: 2nd_DialTone
Nxt 2nd_DialTone Quiet_Answer
This configuration option only appears when the Special Security configuration option is set to RemAccsPswd
or CallbkDir#.
VF Prompt Type. Determines how the answering modem requests a valid password from the originating modem for the
valid password. This configuration option is only used for VF-side password entry and Special Security.
2nd_DialTone – Once the answering modem is off-hook, it generates a dial tone to the originating modem as a prompt
for that modem's VF-side password. (Second dial tone is represented by a W in the dial command string.)
Quiet_Answer – Once the answering modem is off-hook, it does not send an answer tone to the originating modem.
The originating modem enters its VF-side password after detecting a ring back signal followed by five seconds of
silence. For this to work correctly, the Auto Answer Ring # configuration option in the answering modem must be set to
2 rings or greater. (Quiet answer is represented by an @ in the dial command string.)
NMS_Call_Msgs: CallCnct&Prg
Nxt CallCnct&Prg Disable CallCnctOnly CallProgOnly
NMS Call Messages. Determines if the modem status and/or call summary information is sent to the NMS. The modem
can itemize status, such as CallProgress messages, or it can report a summary of activity, such as Call Connect
messages, to the NMS.
Call Connect & Progress – Enables both Call Connect and Call Progress information to be transmitted to the NMS.
Disable – Modem status and call summary information is not sent to the NMS.
Call Connect Only – The modem accumulates call statistics over a period of time and then transmits a summary of
these statistics to the NMS. The NMS uses this data to produce utilization reports.
Call Progress Only – The modem transmits detailed modem status information to the NMS. These messages include
any events that can display on the LCD.
NOTE: For 6800 Series NMS applications, Disable must be selected.
NetworkPosition: Tributary
Nxt Tributary Control
Network Position Identification. Each modem must be identified either as a control modem or a tributary modem.
NOTE: Changes to this configuration option will cause the modem to reset.
NOTE: This configuration option is only applicable for leased-line network management applications.
For the Model 3920Plus, Tributary is the factory default.
For the Model 3921Plus, Control is the factory default.
NetMngmtAddress: 256
Nxt " 256
This configuration option does not appear in point-to-point tributaries, which are always set to address 01.
Network Management Address. Determines the address used when accessing a modem from the NMS or when using
DCP functions that require network management addresses. Within a network link, a control modem can communicate
with a tributary modem by using the tributary modem's network management address. Each TMp tributary modem must
have a different network management address. Address values range from 001 to 256.
