Freedom9 IP 800 Switch User Manual


 
freeView IP 800 User’s Manual
The Modem Settings panel sets the parameters used by the client to connect to the device. An
explanation of the parameters is included below.
Serial line speed: The speed the freeView IP 800 uses to communicate with the modem.
Most modems available today will support the default value of 115200 bps. If an older modem
is used and problems occur, try lowering this value.
Modem init string: The initialization string used by the freeView IP 800 to initialize the
modem. The default value will work with all standard modern modems directly connected to a
telephone line. If a special modem is used or if the modem is connected to a local telephone
switch that requires a special dial sequence to establish a connection to the public telephone
network, change this setting by entering the correct a new string. Refer to the modem's
manual about the AT command syntax to use.
Modem server IP address: This IP address will be assigned to the freeView IP 800 itself
during the PPP handshake. Since it is a point-to-point IP connection, almost any IP address
is permitted, but it cannot be the same as the Ethernet connection of the device or the client.
The default value will work in most cases.
Modem client IP address: This IP address will be assigned to the console computer during
the PPP handshake. Since it is a point-to-point IP connection, almost any IP address is
permitted, but it cannot be the same as the Ethernet connection of the device or the client.
The default value will work in most cases.
Pass-through access to serial port via Telnet: If this option is enabled, a device with a serial
interface (e.g. a managed switch) can be controlled by the local computer. Select the
appropriate options for the serial port and use the Telnet Console, or a standard Telnet client to
connect to the device.
