Slip Mode
Description:
The command to enter Serial Line Internet Protocol mode (SLIP) is used when an external stack
configuration is needed. SLIP is useful if the stack resides in the host computer, multiple sessions and
complete control over all aspects of each session can be obtained. SLIP is one of the more common
protocols used for splitting the functionality between the modem and the host. SLIP does, however,
require certain parameters to be set up prior to activating a session. SLIP does not extract the IP address
from the modem. This must be set up in dial-up-networking before starting. SLIP is less flexible than
Point to Point Protocol (PPP) which is quickly winning over most users.
The SLIP session is usually controlled by DTR, unless the modem has been configured to ignore DTR by
programming register S211. DTR, when used, must be asserted to initiate a session and de-asserted to
terminate a session. If the modem has been programmed not to use DTR Control, then the command
AT\ASLIP can be sent without asserting DTR. To exit SLIP in this case, the host must either power down
the modem or use the escape sequence. To terminate a SLIP session, DTR must be de-asserted or the
escape sequence can be activated or the modem can be powered down.
Format:
AT\ASLIP
The command to enter SLIP mode
Validity:
Slip can only be entered from Command Mode. In Program or Diagnostic modes, the modem is not
actively connected to the network.
Other Considerations:
While a modem can enter SLIP mode from command mode at any time, the intent of SLIP is to connect to
the network. Until there is a network connection established and the modem has registered, it is better to
delay entering SLIP mode as you may report errors that will only persist until the modem registers. It is
generally recommended that the host check the status of the modem before proceeding with a SLIP
connection. The Status can be checked using the “ATS57?” command.
