5.1.1 Configure Dial-In PPP
To enable dial-in PPP access on the modem:
 Select the System: Dial menu option and the port to be configured (Serial DB9 Port or Internal
Modem Port).
Note The console server console/modem serial port is set by default to 115200 baud, No parity, 8 data
bits and 1 stop bit, with software (Xon-Xoff) flow control enabled for the Serial DB9 Port and 9600
baud for the Internal modem and PC Card Ports. When enabling OoB dial-in, we recommend that
this be changed to 38,4000 baud with Hardware Flow Control.
 Select the Baud Rate and Flow Control that will communicate with the modem.
Note You can further configure the console/modem port (for example, to include modem init strings) by
editing /etc/mgetty.config files as described in the Chapter 15—Advanced Configuration.
 Check the Enable Dial-In Access box.
 Enter the User name and Password to be used for the dial-in PPP link.
 In the Remote Address field, enter the IP address to be assigned to the dial-in client. You can
select any address for the Remote IP Address. It, and the Local IP Address, must both be in the
same network range (e.g. 200.100.1.12 and 200.100.1.67).
 In the Local Address field, enter the IP address for the Dial-In PPP Server. This is the IP address
that will be used by the remote client to access console server once the modem connection is
established. You can select any address for the Local IP Address but it must be in the same
network range as the Remote IP Address.
 The Default Route option enables the dialed PPP connection to become the default route for
the Console server.
 The Custom Modem Initialization option allows you to enter a custom AT string modem
initialization string (for example, AT&C1&D3&K3).
