2. Scroll down to the

Add Connect Sequences

dialog box.

3. Enter

1

for the

Sequence Number

. Select

1

for the

Demand Interface

. Select

Add

. The

Sequence 1

configuration parameters are now available.

4. Enter

#777

as the

Dial String

. Select

forced-cellular

from the drop-down menu. Select

Apply

.

This configuration specifies the number to dial for connection, which is

#777

. The

forced-cellular

option constrains the resource pool so that this interface will only use cellular interfaces for this
particular connect sequence.

5. The created cellular connect sequence now appears.
