RS-232 MGMT Port
The RS-232 MGMT Port allows access to several parameters such as the LAN IP settings,
Admin IP Address, and modem reset.
These parameters can be vital to the operation of the modem. You should password protect the
RS-232 MGMT port:
1 Access the console prompt by “ “Using the RS-232
Management Port” on page 80 ”
2 At the main menu, enter 6 .
3 At the Enter Choice prompt, enter the password for
RS-232 port access. If one has not been previously
configured, press
Enter without entering a password.
4 When a “Please enter the new password:” message
appears, type in the new password.
5 When a “Please retype the new password:” message
appears, retype the new password.
6 When the “Password accepted” message appears,
you have changed the password successfully.
You can change the Admin IP Address for the 600F and 700F by physically
connecting to the RS-232 MGMT port.
