Indirect PPP Connection
This method uses a modem connection to phone into the SN0108 / SN0116
from a remote location.
Setup:
1. Set up your hardware configuration to match the diagram, below:
On the remote computer side, use a standard 9 pin serial modem cable
(pin 2 to pin 2; pin 3 to pin 3) to connect the computer to the modem.
On the SN0108 / SN0116 side, use Cat 5 cable and an RJ-45 to Serial
adapter to connect a modem to any of its serial ports (see the PC
Installation Diagram:, page 10). Also see RJ-45 to Serial Adapters,
page 78, for details on choosing the appropriate adapter. The usual
choice for connecting to a modem is SA0142.
Note: Be sure that the port you specify as the Console Port in the OOBC
dialog box (see p. 22) matches the port that you connect the modem
to. Change the setting, if necessary.
2. Set up your connection configuration as specified in Steps 2 - 8 of the
Direct Dial In Connection, section (see page 55).
3. For Step 9, key in the SN0108 / SN0116's modem telephone number in the
fields provided, then click Next.
4. Click Finish.
A new icon that you can use to connect to the SN0108 / SN0116 is created
in the Dial-up Network folder. This completes the Indirect Dial In setup.
