3.9 SNMP - TCP/IP
You can use TCP/IP options such as TFTP, Telnet, PING and SNMP agents with the 6703 console
port over SLIP or PPP. You must enable TCP/IP separately.
3.9.1 Set Up a Dial-up Connection
When the 6703 boots up, the serial port defaults to VT100 terminal mode for access. However, to use
Telnet, TFTP or SNMP applications, you must switch the serial port to SLIP/PPP mode. To set up a
Dial-Up Connection, follow these steps:
1. Set the MDM/TRM switch on the front panel to MDM.
2. Connect a straight-through cable between the serial port and the modem.
3. On your PC, launch Dial-up Networking. For details, see your Windows documentation.
4. Create a new dial-up entry in the Phonebook. Set up the protocol and specify the IP address for
the computer. Set the serial port mode to match the protocol selected in the Dial-up Network
setup on the PC.
5. Set the initialization string for the dial-up modem to include Hardware Flow Control and Data
Compression Enabled, then select the modem, dial-up number and dial-up speed.
6. Set the dial-up speed on the PC to the speed selected for the modem. To check modem speed:
a. Set the MDM/TRM Switch on the front panel to TRM.
b. Reach the Main Menu and type 4 , "Utilities."
c. At the Utilities screen, view the modem speed at item 3.
3.9.2 Create A Script to Configure the Serial Port
Because the DMM defaults to VT100 mode when booting, you cannot see the screens and commands
used to switch to SLIP or PPP mode when you exit VT100 mode. Use a script file to successfully
exit VT100 mode and switch to SLIP or PPP.
1. To create a script on your PC, open Notepad and type the steps you would follow to enter SLIP or
PPP mode. On the last line, press <Space> once to select SLIP mode or twice for PPP mode
