Managing Remote Access Concentrators Using Annex Manager

Chapter 8    Configuring Modems

8-6

Modem definitions reside in the RAC configuration file. Default modem
definitions are stored in include files. If you change a definition that uses
default values, Annex Manager copies the definition from the

include

 file

and places it in the RAC configuration file.

The definitions you create or change here apply to all ports and all
RACs that use the same load host. Your changes may not apply solely
to the RACs or ports you selected.

Edit Modem

 uses these fields:

•

Modem Name

 specifies the type of modem attached to the ports

or RACs you selected. For RACs with asynchronous ports, this
field automatically displays the name that appears in the

Modem

Name

 field of the

Edit Async Port

 window. For ISDN Primary

Rate RACs, it displays the internal modem name from the RAC
configuration file.

–

If this field displays an existing modem name,

Connect Status

String

,

Dialin Setup Command

, and

Dialout Setup Command

display current values.

–

If this field displays

<undefined>

 or is blank, Annex Manager

provides default values in

Connect Status String

,

Dialin Setup

Command

, and

Dialout Setup Command

. Use these default

values or enter new values.

If you want to view or edit a definition for a modem other
than the one listed in the window, click

OK

 here and select

another name from the list.

If the

Edit Modem

 window appears with a modem name

and you enter another existing name,

Connect Status

String

,

Dialin Setup Command

 and

Dialout Setup Command

do not automatically display values for the name you
entered. If you click

Apply

 at this point, Annex Manager

changes the definition for the name you entered to the
values displayed in the window. Use this method to create
a new definition with the same values as an existing one.

Connect Status String

 contains the string the RAC uses

when it initiates an outbound call. This string lists all
