|

Remote Connection for Service

|

To resolve a problem with your IBM 2210, IBM service personnel may request per-

|

mission to establish a temporary, remote connection to the IBM 2210. In most situ-

|

ations, the IBM service personnel will not be at a remote workstation that is

|

connected to your IP network. Consequently, remote access must be established

|

using a modem. Whenever you authorize IBM service personnel to establish such

|

a remote connection, you must:

|

Connect and configure the modem before the remote service session can begin

|

Provide the service personnel with the telephone number of a modem con-

|

nected to the service port of the target IBM 2210 or to a modem that is con-

|

nected to the service port on an IBM 2210 that is on the same network as the

|

target IBM 2210

|

Provide service personnel with the password or other necessary information for

|

access to any security protection features

|

Modem Settings

|

The following modems have been tested for use with the IBM 2210:

|

IBM 7852, Model 400

|

Zoom/FaxModem 56Kx

|

Atlas 33.6 External PC Data/Fax Modem

|

For instructions on setting-up these and possibly other modems to operate with

|

your IBM 2210, see:

|

Attaching an ASCII Terminal to the Service Port

|

Attach an ASCII terminal or emulator (with the appropriate emulation software) to

|
