Settings on Serial ports
1. Select a port from Configuration -> Serial ports -> Ports Settings
2. Change the port profile to modem
3. In the Port Profile Settings -> Modem Settings section, Check Incoming Connections.
4. Check Enable PPP connections on this modem.
5. Set configurations on Basic serial settings and Advanced Serial Settings sections according to
your environment.
6. Select authentication method of the serial port on Authentication Settings section. If the port
profile is set to modem, you can only select either None or Local authentication method.
7. Select PPP User from the list if you set authentication method to None.” If you select Local
authentication method, you cannot select PPP user separately. To make correct PPP connection
with Local serial port authentication method, you need to have PPP connection configuration
with the same user name and password as in local system user database set on
Configuration > Users. (See step 4 under Incoming PPP Connections above.)
Note: If you are using local authentication for the serial port or internal modem and using a user
in the local database, you must use the Show Terminal window on your PPP client. When the
terminal window opens, login to the serial port and then close the terminal window. PPP
negotiation will start once you close the terminal window.
