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.
