Regaining
Configuration
Access to the
PPP Serial Port
Console
If you incorrectly configure the PPP serial port console, you cannot
regain configuration access to the Web Agent or the CLI. This is a
temporary situation and can corrected.
To regain configuration access to the Web Agent or the CLI when
the console port is in PPP mode:
1. Enter TTY in the console window. The CLI login prompt
displays. It may be necessary to press Enter several times to
see the login prompt. You may see the modem init command
string.
2. Enter your user name at the Login prompt. The password
prompt displays.
3. Enter your password at the Password prompt. The switch
CLI prompt displays.
Enter the PPP configuration commands necessary to start
PPP. Refer to the Command Reference Guide for the Avaya P550R,
P580, P880, and P882 Multiservice Switches, Version 5.3 for details
about these PPP commands.
4. Enter exit at the CLI prompt after you complete your
configuration settings to reinvoke the modem control
software and exit CLI mode.
* Note: You do not need to exit from CLI if the serial port
console has been configured as a TTY console, or if you
do not intend to re-attempt connecting using PPP.
