Out-of-Band Site Management With LTE
WAN Backup with LTE
This configuration guide is focused on Out-of-Band access with LTE. Although use cases will
include WAN backup, no backup configurations will be detailed. Configuration guides are
available for using LTE as backup for Verizon Mobile Private Network and public network
services, available at the link below under “Verizon LTE Deployment Guides for Cisco 4G
LTE ISR 819/1900/2900/3900”.

Traditional Out-of-Band Access with PSTN
In order to provide a management path that does not depend on or affect the data path,
organizations deploy out-of-band management access to remote sites. In the past this was
done by installing a PSTN line along with a modem at the remote site router. The modem
can be external, or embedded in the Cisco ISR router with a module (HWIC or eHWIC).

By using a PC with dial-up function or a dial-out terminal server at the main site, an
administrator can gain access to a command line interface on the remote site router. In
addition to troubleshooting and recovering (if needed) the router, an administrator can also
access other equipment at the remote site (by either a Telnet or SSH session, or by serial
connection if the remote site router has been appropriately configured). Below is a diagram
representing traditional out-of-band access via the PSTN.
