Juniper SRX240 Series Quick start guide

Connecting the Modem at the SRX240 Services Gateway End

Before you can connect a dial-up modem to the console port on the SRX240 Services

Gateway, you must configure the modem to accept a call on the first ring and accept

DTR signals. You must also disable flow control on the modem.

NOTE: These instructions use Hayes-compatible modem commands to configure the

modem. If your modem is not Hayes-compatible, refer to the documentation for

your modem and enter the equivalent modem commands.

To configure the modem on the services gateway end:

1. Connect the modem to a PC or laptop computer.

2. Power on the modem.

3. From the PC or laptop computer, start your asynchronous terminal emulation

application (such as Microsoft Windows HyperTerminal) and select the COM port

to which the modem is connected (for example, COM1).

4. Configure the port settings shown in Table 1.

In the HyperTerminal window, enter AT.

For more information on the AT commands, see the JUNOS Software

Administration Guide.

An OK response verifies that the modem can communicate successfully with the

COM port on the PC or laptop.

Configure the modem to answer a call on the first ring by entering ATS0=1.

Configure the modem to accept modem control DTR signals by entering AT&D1.

Disable flow control by entering AT&K0.
