configure a dial-up network connection, which defaults to the right
settings like PPP.
The Modem Settings panel allows you to configure the remote
access to the IKVM-1000 using a modem. The meaning of each
parameter will be described below. The modem settings are part of
the serial settings panel.
Serial line speed
The speed the IKVM-1000 is communicating with the modem.
Most of all modems available today will support the default
value of 115200 bps. In case you are using an old modem and
discovering problems try to lower this speed.
Modem Init String
The initialization string used by the IKVM-1000 to initialize the
modem. The default value will work with all modern standard
modems directly connected to a telephone line. In case you
have a special modem or the modem is connected to a local
telephone switch that requires a special dial sequence in order
to establish a connection to the public telephone network, you
can change this setting by giving a new string. Refer to the
modem's manual about the AT command syntax.
Modem server IP address
This IP address will be assigned to the IKVM-1000 itself during
the PPP handshake. Since it is a point-to-point IP connection,
virtually every IP address is possible but you must make sure,
it is not interfering with the IP settings of the IKVM-1000 and
your console computer. The default value will work in most
cases.
Modem client IP address
This IP address will be assigned to your console computer
during the PPP handshake. Since it is a point-to-point IP
connection, virtually every IP address is possible but you must
make sure, it is not interfering with the IP settings of the IKVM-
1000 and your console computer. The default value will work in
most cases.
