Configuring the modem dial-up

Use the modem and an existing telephone network to establish a connection to the RAS Server. The resulting connection is a point-to-point connection via a telephone line. The modem dial-up is set with the help of the CX Configuration Tool.

Requirements:

• RAS Server is switched on.

Establish a connection as follows:

You can set this configuration variant using the CX Configuration Tool.

• Open the "Start menu" and then select "Control Panel"
• Start the "CX Configuration"
• Navigate to the "RAS Control" tab
• Select one of the modem lines listed there, for example "Hayes Compatible", and click "Enable Line"
• Please make sure that you have also made all other necessary settings, for example the setting of a user account or IP setting. These settings are described in detail further above in this document. ("General information…")
• Restart your device

Each Windows version has an integrated dial-up client that supports remote dial-up via a modem. Taking Windows 7 as an example, you can configure such a connection on your client as follows:

• Open the "Start menu" and then select "Control Panel"
• Open "Network and Internet" and change there to "Network and Sharing Center"
• Click "Create a new connection"



• Select "Connect to a workplace"
• Then select "No, create a new connection". Please note: This screen is only displayed if there is already a configured dial-up connection on your system
• Select "Dial directly"
• In the next step, select the modem that you wish to use for the outgoing connection and click "Next"
• Enter the telephone number of your CE device. This is the telephone number of the modem on the device!
• Enter a user name and a password. These are the access data that you set in the "CX Configuration" for the RAS Server.
• Finally, click "Connect". This saves the connection profile and starts the connection to your device.
