Chapter 7. SERIAL-BASED REMOTE PRODUCT

MANAGEMENT

7.1

Introduction

1. The Serial-based Remote Product Management Interface is intended to provide two important capabilities:

First, it allows you to establish IP communications (Web, SNMP) when the unit is first being configured.

Second, the interface allows you to bring the CDM-840 back online through the serial or Telnet Interface over a

very slow speed "backup channel”.

This interface is NOT intended to be a full featured interface to configure all aspects of the modem. Rather, its purpose

is to provide enough commands to allow a terminal to be brought back online.

Once communications have been re-established, the standard interfaces (Web, SNMP, NetVue) can be used complete

any additional detailed configuration/control/monitoring functions

USE OF THE SERIAL-BASED REMOTE PRODUCT MANAGEMENT INTERFACE IS RECOMMENDED ONLY FOR ADVANCED

USERS.

See Chapter 6. ETHERNET-BASED REMOTE PRODUCT MANAGEMENT for details on using the CDM-840 SNMP

and Web Server Interfaces.
