GSP>
The ER Command is used to enable or disable remote serial port modem access. The following modes are
available for the remote/modem port:
• LOCKED-OUT — Prevent any dial-in access
• GSP — the user will login to the GSP command interface when a connection is established.
• SESSION — The user will connect to the ldev configured on the remote port I/O path.
If the port access is set to GSP, then you can use the GSP>SE command to establish a session to the ldev
configured on the remote port I/O path. The Remote Serial Port Modem Protocol parameters that are set with
the CA commanad must match the parameters for the User Port in NMMGR. The parameters that must match
are:
Baud rate – The baud rate must be the same
Modem protocol – Bell protocal in the GSP equals Modem Type 1 (US),
and CCITT protocol equals Modem Type 2 (European.
Parity – The parity must be the same.
See steps 1 through 4 in the section ’Configuring the Remote port for Predictive Support’ for instruction on
how to configure the Remote port parameters to match.
Configuring the Remote Port for Predictive Support
This section contains the guidelines for configuring the remote modem on A-Class and N-Class servers. In
most environments, the remote port is used solely to provide a remote connection for Predictive Support.
These instructions are tailored for using Predictive Support on the remote port. The supported modem is the
Multi-Tech MT5634ZBA (HP Part Number: 0960-1074).
1. Initiate a new session on any terminal and log on as MANAGER.SYS.
2. Run Sysgen and enter the IO command. Make sure that ldev 21 is configured as follows (same for both the
A-Class and N-Class):
io> ld 21
