see the login prompt. You may see the modem init command
string.

2. Enter your user name at the Login prompt. The password

prompt displays.

3. Enter your password at the Password prompt. The switch

CLI prompt displays.

Enter the PPP configuration commands necessary to start
PPP. Refer to the Command Reference Guide for the Avaya P550R,

for details
about these PPP commands.

4. Enter

exit

at the CLI prompt after you complete your

configuration settings to reinvoke the modem control
software and exit CLI mode.

* Note: You do not need to exit from CLI if the serial port

console has been configured as a TTY console, or if you
do not intend to re-attempt connecting using PPP.
