The attached equipment is now ready to be remotely managed.
Remotely Connecting and Managing Using Cellular
To connect to the USR4204 and manage the attached devices at the equipment site via a
cellular network, the recommended setup is private static IP addressing, which allows
immediate secure communication with the remote equipment through a VPN tunnel. Please
consult your cellular modem vendor for guidance in setting-up mobile-terminated cellular
connections, consult your cellular network operator for guidance in setting-up static IP
addressing and a VPN tunnel, and consult your terminal application documentation for the
settings to contact an IP address.
From the TCP/IP terminal, enter the static IP address and port number of the cellular
modem at the equipment site. When the modem connects, the USR4204 should send the
Main Menu or login prompt to the management terminal. The attached equipment can be
managed from the USR4204 Main Menu.
If the Main Menu or login prompt does not automatically appear, hit Enter. If
the Main Menu or login prompt still does not appear on the terminal, check
the Troubleshooting section.
