In addition, if you want to access the configuration files (upload, download), or
download new firmware files to the T1 access unit, you must set the FTP Session
configuration option to Enable.

The T1 access unit can be managed remotely by connecting an external device
like a modem or PAD ( packet assembly/disassembly) facility to the COM port.
