Establishing a Callback with your Modem PC Card
Setting up a callback system serves two purposes:
1. Cost savings: reversing line charges - allows your company to call you back.
2. Security: makes sure users are who they pretend to be by calling a well-known or precon-
figured number back.
The steps to allow callback are divided into two parts. Part One is the configuration for the
Advanced Secure Console Port Server (Server Side BLACK BOX ® Advanced Console Server
Setup). Part Two is the configuration for the client side.
