APPENDIX E Windows Dial-up Networking (DUN)
Dial-up Networking (DUN) allows a computer or other device to use the serial port on your Pin-
Point to connect to the Internet or private network using PPP just like an analog modem using a
standard phone line.
Microsoft Windows XP is used in the examples below. The modem driver installation and DUN
setup and configuration is similar in Microsoft Windows products. Examples are not provided here
for installing the driver or configuring DUN for any other operating system.
