Establishing a Modem Connection
A PPP connection with a modem can be established only after the X330WAN is
configured with an IP address and net-mask. Also, the parameters used in the
X330WAN must be compatible with the modem’s parameters.
All CLI commands mentioned in this section are described in Chapter 6: X330WAN
CLI Commands.
To configure a modem interface:
1
Connect a terminal to the console port of the X330WAN, as described in
"Establishing a Console Connection" on page 17.
2
At the prompt, type:
interface Console
and press Enter.
3
Enter an IP address and subnet mask for the X330WAN to connect via its PPP
interface using the
ip address
<ip address> <mask>
command.
Note:
The PPP interface, configured within the
interface console
context, must
be on a different subnet from the router interfaces.
4
Set the baud rate, PPP authentication, and PPP timeout required to match your
modem using the following commands:
speed
<9600|19200|38400>
ppp authentication
<chap|none|pap>
timeout absolute
<time>
. The time entered is in minutes.
5
Type:
async mode interactive
The CLI responds with the following:
Entering the Modem mode would occur automatically upon proprietary
modem-cable plug-in into the console port. The terminal mode would
be restored automatically upon insertion of proprietary terminal-
cable
