Modem Dialing States
This section describes how each modem state that supports sites operates when sites are
enabled.
Dial In
The EMG waits for a peer to call the EMG unit to establish a text (command line) or PPP
connection.
For text connections, the user will be prompted for a login and password, and will be
authenticated via the currently enabled authentication methods (Local Users, NIS, LDAP, etc).
The site list will be searched for a site that (a) the
Login/CHAP Host
matches the name that
was authenticated, (b)
Authentication
is set to PAP, and (c) the
Port
is set to
None
or
matches the port the modem is on.
If a matching site is found, the
Timeout Logins
parameter configured for the site will be used
for the rest of the dial-in connection instead of the
Timeout Logins
parameter configured for
the modem. Once authenticated, a CLI session will be initiated, and the user will remain
Modem Timeout
Timeout for dial-in and dial-on-demand PPP connections. Select
Yes
(default) for
the EMG to terminate the connection if no traffic is received during the configured
idle time. Enter a value of from 1 to 9999 seconds. The default is 30 seconds.
Restart Delay
The number of seconds after the modem timeout and before the EMG unit
attempts another connection. The default is 30 seconds.
