SLC™ Console Manager User Guide 247

Dial-in (Text Mode) to a Remote Device

The example in Figure 14-3 shows a modem connected to the SLC console manager device port

1, and a SUN server connected to the SLC device port 2. You can configure the modem for text

mode dial-in, so a remote user can dial into the modem using a terminal emulation program and

access the SUN server. HyperTerminal™ which comes with the Microsoft ® Windows™ operating

system, is an example of a terminal emulation program.

In this example, the system administrator performs the following steps.

1. Configure the device port that the modem is connected to for dial-in by using the set

deviceport command with the shown parameters.

2. Configure the device port that is connected to the console port of the SUN UNIX server by

using the baud and flowcontrol parameters.

3. Dial into the SLC console manager via the modem using a terminal emulation program on a

remote PC. A command line prompt displays.
