To connect a modem to an Ethernet RoutingSwitch you may need to set up the modem port using another type ofconnection, such as a terminal connection, to the NNCLI.You can access the NNCLI through a modem connection to the EthernetRouting Switch 8690SF, 8691SF/CPU, or 8692SF/CPU modules.ATTENTIONNortel recommends that you use the default settings for the modem port formost modem installations.Prerequisites• You need a DTE-to-DCE cable (straight or transmit cable) to connectthe Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 to the modem.• You must configure your client dial-up settings to establish theconnection to the modem.• You must log on to the Global Configuration mode in the NNCLI.Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 8600Quick StartNN46205-310 02.01 Standard30 May 2008Copyright © 2008 Nortel Networks.
