modem connection to pix

[Kevin Melton]

Is it possible to hang a modem onto a pix on the console port.

i have a firewall that is at a remote location. Intermittently it hangs and i have to drive out to it and reboot it. Is it possible to put a modem on him so I can dial in when it hangs and get on the console port?

No. That would be a really bad idea anyways. Of course, if the Pix is really hung you wouldn't be able to dial in, login, and reboot it. If it isn't actually "hung" and you really want remote access though, you could hang a modem off a PC/server that also has a console cable connected to the pix.
