Configure modem-pooling equipment

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2

To configure modem-pooling equipment

  1. Open Control Panel.

  2. Configure your modem-pooling equipment to behave like one of the modem types listed in the Add Hardware wizard. (In other words, the modem-pooling equipment must generate and accept command strings as if it were a modem of the chosen type.) The switching equipment must also have the same RS-232 signal behavior as the specified modem.

  3. Connect COM ports to the equipment and configure the ports for remote access in Routing and Remote Access.

Notes

  • To open a Control Panel item, click Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click the appropriate icon.

  • It is recommended that you configure the modem-pooling equipment as a Hayes-compatible modem, a widely known standard.

Information about functional differences

  • Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
