Administration of the Avaya G350 Media Gateway - Avaya Support

Configuring the G350 for modem useNote:●●●●Use the ppp authentication command to decide the authentication method usedwhen starting a client session on the PPP server. Use this command with one of thefollowing parameters:- pap — Password Authentication Protocol. An unencrypted password is sent forauthentication.- chap — Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol. An encrypted password is sentfor authentication. To configure this password, use the ppp chap-secret command.- none — no password is sent.Note:The ppp authentication command changes the PPP authenticationparameters of the console port as well as the USB port, even if you use thecommand in USB interface context.Use the shutdown command to disconnect a session.Use the timeout absolute command to set the number of minutes until the systemautomatically disconnects an idle PPP incoming session. By default, there is no timeout.Use the show interface usb-modem command to display the USB interfaceparameters, the current status of the USB port, and the identity of any USB modemconnected to the USB port.Configuring the console port for modem useThe console port is labeled CONSOLE. The console port is an RJ-45 socket that functions as aserial port. You can connect a console device or serial modem to the console port to access theCLI. For more information, see Accessing the CLI on page 27.You can set the console port so that it automatically detects whether a console device or amodem is connected to it. Use the async mode interactive command to set the consoleport to use modem mode every time an Avaya proprietary modem cable is plugged into theconsole port. If you do not want the console port to automatically detect when a modem isconnected to it, use the async mode terminal command to disable interactive mode.Note:Note: By default, async mode is set to terminal.Use the following commands to configure the console port for use with a modem:● Use the async reset-modem command to reset the connected modem.●Use the speed command to set the PPP baud rate to be used by the console port whenconnected to a modem (in bits per second). Options are 9600, 19200, and 38400.78 Administration of the Avaya G350 Media Gateway
