ACS 
Introduction 
This guide shows you how to setup your MultiAccess ACS analog 
communication server, two-port model MA220, four-port model MA420 or  eight-
port model MA820. All three units provide the same Remote Access Server, 
RAS, and modem sharing capabilities except for the number of ports each can 
provide. The MA420 and MA820 are provided in a desktop and rack mountable 
units where as the MA220 is provided in a desktop and wall mountable unit. 
 
MultiAccess MA820 
The MultiAccess ACS has two roles (usage), RAS and Modem Sharing. 
RAS Solution: The MultiAccess can be used as a dial-in PPP Remote Access 
Server in a LAN to Client environment. The purpose is to give remote nodes 
(i.e., Microsoft Dail-up Networking clients) TCP/IP access to the same subnet 
and LAN the ACS is installed on. Masquerading (NAT) and LAN to LAN routing 
(assignment of an entire subnet) are IP networking techniques not supported by 
the ACS. The supported PPP security protocol (means of communicating user 
credentials between PPP end points) is PAP only. 
Modem Sharing Solution: The modems in the ACS can be a shared resource on 
your network, commonly referred to as a network modem pool. Computers with 
network asscess to the ACS can use Telnet and get direct AT command access 
to one of the modems in the ACS, for either outbound or inbound calls. A 
common way to take advantage of this role is by installing Com Port Redirector 
Software (i.e., Multi-Tech’s MCSI2000 for Windows) on your workstations. The 
redirector adds a virtual com port to the workstation and uses Telnet to map, 
redirect, the com port to a modem in the ACS. The redirector and Telnet 
session replaces the UART based hardware of a PC and serial cable 
connection normally found in traditional modem installations. A communication 
program using this virtual com port has its data redirected to and from the 
modem within the ACS, making the modem appear as if it is directly attached to 
a communication port on the workstation.
