You automatically disable this option when you configure the software
error recovery start option to Boot Operating System. When ASR-2 pages
you, you cannot dial in unless ASR-2 exceeds 10, the threshold number
of server restart retries. When this happens, ASR-2 restarts the server
into the Compaq Utilities and places the modem in auto-answer mode.
