V.90 S56 III modem port—virtual slot 70-000
The on-board modems are assigned to virtual slot 70-000. The Mod Config menu, accessed
from
70-000 V.90 S56 III Modem-24
, provide access to subprofiles for configuring the MAX to
receive and send modem calls.
Profiles
Profiles are functional parameter groupings contained in the submenus of the Main Edit Menu.
All MAX models offer access to Ether Options, Answer, and Connection profiles. Additional
profiles exist. Some are common to all MAX models, and others differ depending on the model
and configuration of your MAX unit.
Table 3-1 summarizes the purpose of Ether Options, Answer, and Connection profiles, which
are described in more detail in later sections of this chapter and in Chapter 5, “Basic
Configuration Tasks.” Other profiles are described in detail in the Network Configuration
Guide.
Navigating the VT100 interface
Table 3-2 lists the basic VT100 interface navigation commands, and the following sections
provide instructions for and examples of using the interface. In the examples in this section,
both the Arrow key and Control key methods of navigating the interface are used. In the
procedures in later chapters, only the Arrow key method is used. You can use the keystrokes
listed in Table 3-2 that are most convenient on your keyboard.
