SMART IP EXTENDER
Figure 31 Serial Port Settings
In the IP Extender Serial Settings specify the devices connected to the two Serial
ports.
Serial Port 1
The port options are listed below
Configuration login –If this option is checked you can only use the port for the
initial configuration and no other function.
Modem - Connect a modem to Serial 1 port. See section
73 below
Serial line speed - Most modems today will support the default value of 115200
bps. For older modems lower the speed.
Modem Init String - Initialization string. The default value works with all modern
standard modems connected to a telephone line. For special modems or if connected
to a local telephone switch that requires a special dial sequence to connect to the
public telephone network, change this setting by giving a new string. See the
modem's manual about the AT command syntax.
Modem Server IP address – This address is used only when connecting to IP
Extender via a modem. When you dial into the IP Extender the client computer will
receive a Client IP address from the IP Extender. Open the Web browser and type
modem server IP address to login to the IP Extender.
The Client IP (see paragraph below) must be in the same class C subnet as the server
IP. This subnet should not conflict with the Ethernet subnet on the client side and
with the Ethernet subnet on IP Extender Network side.
Modem Client IP address - This address is assigned to your console computer
during the PPP handshake. Since it is a point-to-point IP connection virtually every
IP address is possible but ensure, it is not interfering with the IP settings of IP
Extender and your console computer. The default value will work in most cases.
