To display the current configuration, use the
List Site
command.
Figure 4-29:
Listing a Site’s Configuration
List Site can be used with a number of parameters, which display different aspects of a site’s configuration.
For example,
List Site Ports
will display all ports associated with the site.
4.6.4.4 Select Ports to Use for Dialing Out
Once a site is created, the ports that it will use to dial the remote location must be defined. Each site must
be associated with at least one port. Use the following command:
Figure 4-30:
Associating a Site With a Port
4.6.4.5 Assign a Telephone Number to the Port or Site
If the site will be used with modems, at least one telephone number must be specified so that the site can
dial a remote host. The number may be assigned specifically for use with a particular port, or for use with
any port. To assign a port-specific telephone number, use the
Define Site Port Telephone
command.
Figure 4-31:
Assigning a Port Telephone Number
To assign a telephone number to the site that may be used with any port, use the
Define Site Telephone
command.
Figure 4-32:
Assigning a Site Telephone Number
A port-specific telephone number will override a site telephone number. For example, site irvine may be
configured to use the number 635-9202 on any port it’s using, but only the number 845-7000 when it’s using
port 3.
4.6.4.6 Configure Authentication
When an outgoing connection is attempted, the remote router may or may not require the SCS to
authenticate itself. One of the following scenarios will generally apply:
The remote router uses CHAP or PAP to prompt the SCS to authenticate itself
This scenario is the most common; the configuration instructions in this section assume that CHAP
or PAP will be used.
The remote router requires a login password
In this case, the SCS will need to use a chat script to communicate the password to the remote router.
See Chapter 5,
Additional Remote Networking
, for instructions.
The remote router does not require authentication
