Setting Up and Installing Modems Verifying the Modem Connection This section provides information about how to verify that the modems are correctly connected. Note: This procedure requires either a telco system to dial in to the modems or a terminal emulation program on a laptop or workstation that has an attached modem. Refer to "Setting Up a Remote Modem System" on page 158 for instructions on setting up a remote modem with a terminal emulation program. To verify the modem connection: 1. Check that both modem cables are firmly connected. 2. Power on the modems, if not already on. Note: The modems must be powered on and operational before the SAN Director 2/128 is powered on, to allow the SAN Director 2/128 to detect the modems during boot. 3. Verify that both modems indicate they are ready by illuminating their "Clear to Send" (CS), "Terminal Ready" (TR), and "Modem Ready" (MR) indicators. If this does not occur, ensure that the modems are connected to a power source and are powered on, and check all modem cable connections. 4. Verify that POST is complete on the SAN Director 2/128 (a minimum of 3 minutes). 5. Dial in to the telephone number assigned to the SAN Director 2/128, using a telco system to dial in to the modems or the setup described in "Setting Up a Remote Modem System" on page 158. 6. Observe the modem LEDs: the Ring indicator should flash briefly as the telephone rings. If the Ring indicator does not flash on both units, recheck the incoming telephone lines to the modems. 7. Verify that after one ring the modem associated with the active CP card (usually in slot 5) lights the "Off Hook" (OH) indicator on the modem and a login prompt is presented to the remote client. 8. Log in to the switch from the remote client as admin. The default password is "password". 158 SAN Director 2/128 Installation Guide

SAN Director 2/128 Installation Guide
Verifying the Modem Connection
This section provides information about how to verify that the modems are
correctly connected.
Note:
This procedure requires either a telco system to dial in to the modems or a
terminal emulation program on a laptop or workstation that has an attached modem.
Refer to °
Setting Up a Remote Modem System
± on page 158 for instructions on setting
up a remote modem with a terminal emulation program.
To verify the modem connection:
1.
Check that both modem cables are firmly connected.
2.
Power on the modems, if not already on.
Note:
The modems must be powered on and operational before the SAN Director
2/128 is powered on, to allow the SAN Director 2/128 to detect the modems during
boot.
3.
Verify that both modems indicate they are ready by illuminating their “Clear
to Send” (CS), “Terminal Ready” (TR), and “Modem Ready” (MR)
indicators. If this does not occur, ensure that the modems are connected to a
power source and are powered on, and check all modem cable connections.
4.
Verify that POST is complete on the SAN Director 2/128 (a minimum of 3
minutes).
5.
Dial in to the telephone number assigned to the SAN Director 2/128, using a
telco system to dial in to the modems or the setup described in “
Setting Up a
Remote Modem System
” on page 158.
6.
Observe the modem LEDs: the Ring indicator should flash briefly as the
telephone rings. If the Ring indicator does not flash on both units, recheck the
incoming telephone lines to the modems.
7.
Verify that after one ring the modem associated with the active CP card
(usually in slot 5) lights the “Off Hook” (OH) indicator on the modem and a
login prompt is presented to the remote client.
8.
Log in to the switch from the remote client as admin. The default password is
“password”.
