How to Set Up a Modem

1. Start Admintool, if it's not already running.

   See "How to Start Admintool" for more information on starting Admintool.

2. Select Serial Ports from the Browse menu.

   The Serial Ports menu is displayed.

3. Select the port or ports that will be used with a modem.

4. Choose Modify from the Edit menu.

   The Modify Serial Port window appears in the Basic Detail mode. To enter additional details, select either the More or Expert Detail modes.

5. Choose the modem configuration template from the Use Template menu that meets or most closely matches your modem service.

   See Table 13-3 for a description of each template.

   See Table 13-4 for the default values of each template. If a UUCP service will be used to dial in to your modem on a Solaris system, see "How to Set Up a Modem for Use With UUCP" for the rest of the procedure.

6. Change values of template entries if desired.
