Appendix C: Using DSView Software Over a Modem Connection
An external modem may be attached to the DSR switch. This modem may be used to access the
switch when an Ethernet connection is not available.
A modem/PPP dial-up connection must be established before the remote operation is enabled. The
dial-up connection options should be set to 115,200 bps, 8 bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and enabled
hardware flow control.
Before you begin
The following actions should be performed before using the DSR Remote Operations software:
Ensure that the DSR switch is configured. See Chapter 2 for more information.
Ensure that DSR switch users have been added to the DSR switch internal database. If the
DSView 3 software is not available, the switch database is used for authentication. If neither
are available, authentication cannot be performed for the DSR switch. See Chapter 4 for
more information.
Ensure that an external modem is attached to the DSR switch MODEM port. The modem
should have auto-answer turned off (typically a modem’s default setting).
Ensure that your client PC contains dial-up software and that the software is configured
properly. See your operating system documentation for more information.
