The <service name> is the name to assign the network service, for
example, dialout-service.
The <socket number> is the TCP port number where the service is
accessible. DialOut/IP expects the TCP port number for the RAS 1500 to
be 6000 (and above). Therefore, 6000 is a logical value to use.
The <modem group name> is the name of the modem group created in
Step 1. The parameters following the “data” keyword cannot include
spaces.
Step 3: Turn off Security for Dial-out
DialOut/IP does not support authentication through the RAS 1500,
therefore a “login” prompt must not appear when the network service is
first contacted. To ensure security is off, issue the following command:
set dial_out security no
Step 4: Save the Configuration
Save the configuration using the following command:
save all
Step 5: Test the Configuration
To test that the configuration was successful, complete the following
steps
from a workstation on the same LAN as the RAS 1500 :
1 From the Windows desktop, select Start, then Run. The Run dialog box
appears.
2 In the Open text box, enter the following:
telnet <RAS1500’s IP address> <network service’s port number>
Example:
telnet 192.168.1.1 6000
