Connecting an External Modem
A modem provides remote access to the Passport 5430. It is a good idea to connect
a modem in case the Passport 5430 experiences system problems.
To use a modem connection as a management console, you can connect a
telephone line directly to the optional V.34 console modem adapter module, or
you can connect an external modem to the console port.
For instructions on connecting to an integrated V.34 console modem module, see
Installing and Operating the Passport 5430 Multiservice Access Switch.
Table 4-3
provides the default settings for both types of modem interfaces.
Note:
Before you turn on the Passport 5430 for the first time to boot and
configure the router, you must connect a PC or terminal console.
