Configuring Modems and DTR-Controlled Devices

NetWare^® Link/PPP^TM modem device management uses file-based scripts to specify the commands for modem initialization, connection dialing, answering, and termination.

Most of the modem device management settings you need to make are covered by the configuration procedures in Chapter 3, "Configuring Permanent PPP Connections,” and Chapter 4, "Configuring On-Demand PPP Connections.”

This chapter provides information about modem and device selection, as well as additional configuration procedures that might be necessary for some modems and Data Terminal Ready (DTR) controlled devices. It contains the following sections:

• "Modem and DTR-Controlled Device Configuration Decisions”
• "Configuring Modem Control Scripts for AT Dialing”
• "Using CPECFG to Configure Modem and DCE Devices”
• "Configuring the Asynchronous Control Character Map”
• "Configuring Additional Modem/DCE Parameters”
• "Where to Go from Here”
