188 AppendixA
Using the Access Port (AP)
Configuring the Console
The system identification is a displayable character ASCII string (24 characters
maximum) that is stored on the AP, for the AP's exclusive use. The AP identification has
absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with any other system identification stored elsewhere
in the SPU. No other entity has access to it, and the AP has no access to any other system
identification.
Enter up to 24 characters as the system identification. Characters 00 hex through 1F hex
are control characters and are not considered displayable. Entering a space at the system
identification prompt deletes the previous identification string.
The new configuration is written to nonvolatile memory (NVM) at the end of command
processing. It is not used until the next incoming call is answered and the configuration
has been written to NVM. If CA is executed by a remote user and the line is lost, the new
configuration is still not in effect and the remote user can redial and pick up the process
where the disconnection occurred.
For NVM failure, the configuration uses default parameters. These values are 1200 bits
per second, for the bit rate; rate select (CCITT 111) high; and system identification set to
the null string.
If, during the configuration of the remote support modem, the AP encounters any
unexpected or inappropriate input, it may respond with a combination of the following
messages.
Expecting ”Y” or ”N” (APERR 11)
Expecting ”H” or ”L” (APERR 12)
String was truncated to 24 characters. (APMSG 04)
Your selection is outside of the legal range.

Enabling Remote Console Access
The command ER enables remote access to control and console modes through the remote
support modem port. The command is only valid from the system console. ER allows you to
set the remote access password, the number of password tries, and single or multiple
access.
Using the ER command generates the following prompts:
CM>ER Return
Current remote console access configuration:
Mode: Multiple
Password: The quick brown fox
Password faults: 10
Do you wish to change the configuration? (Y/N): Y Return
Enter your changes. <CR> retains the current value.
Current mode: Multiple
