Configuring Modems in Cisco Access Servers
To configure modem support for access servers such as the Cisco AS5300 and AS5800, perform the
following tasks. The list describes which tasks are required and which are optional but recommended.
• Configuring Modem Lines (Required)
• Verifying the Dial-In Connection (Optional but Recommended)
• Troubleshooting the Dial-In Connection (Optional but Recommended)
• Configuring the Modem Using a Modemcap (Required)
• Configuring the Modem Circuit Interface (Required for Digital Modems)
Note See the chapter “Configuring and Managing Cisco Access Servers and Dial Shelves” for additional
information about configuring Cisco AS5x00 series access servers.
Configuring Modem Lines
You must configure the modem lines and set the country code to enable asynchronous connections into
your access server. To configure the modems and line, use the following commands beginning in global
configuration mode:
Command Purpose
Step 1 MICA modems
Router(config)# modem country mica country
NextPort SPE modems
Router(config)# spe country country
Microcom modems
Router(config)# modem country microcom_hdms country
Depending on the type of modems loaded in your
access server, specifies the modem vendor and
country code.

This step is only for the MICA,
NextPort SPE, and Microcom modems in the
Cisco AS5000 series access servers.
Table 7 through Table 10 provide a summary and
comparison of the Cisco IOS commands used for
the MICA and NextPort modems.
Step 2
Router(config)# line beginning-line-number
ending-line-number
Enters the number of modem lines to configure.
Usually this range is equal to the number of
modems in the access server. Use the show line
EXEC command to see which lines are available.
