336 DSView 3 Software Installer/User Guide
Before using the DSR Remote Operations software
The following actions should be performed before using the DSR Remote Operations software:
• Ensure that the switch is configured. See the installer/user guide for the DSR switch for
more information.
• Ensure that users have been added to the internal database of the DSR switch. If the DSView 3
server is not available, the appliance database is used for appliance authentication. If neither
are available, authentication cannot be performed for the switch and an error will be displayed
by the DSR Remote Operations software. See the installer/user guide for the DSR switch for
more information.
• An external modem must be attached to the PPP modem interface (modem port) of the DSR
switch. A modem/PPP dial-up connection must be established before the DSR Remote
Operations software may be started. The modem port should have auto-answer turned off
(typically a modem’s default setting). The dial-up connection options should be set to 115200
baud, 8 bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and enabled hardware flow control. The DSR Remote
Operations application must be started within the authentication time-out specified in the
Terminal Applications menu of the DSR switch or the PPP (modem) link will be disconnected.
• Ensure that the PC containing the client interface has dial-up software and that the software is
configured properly. See the operating system documentation for more information.
• Install the DSR Remote Operations software.
