WIC-1AM for dial-in management

[robphill]

I have been handed the task of figuring how to implement a WIC-1AM in a 2620XM running 12.2(8)T5. We want to implement the card only so we can dial-in and manage router, i.e. bounce interfaces, troubleshoot WAN issues, etc.

I know it is not the best solution for this usage, but the decision was not to make. Can someone point me in the right direction as to how to configure this.

Thanks

In order to only get dialin management access into to 2620xm you will need to configure the modem line for exec dialin so that you get a router prompt when connected.

Under the line associated to the modem we just need to following command:

conf t

line x

modem dialin

transport in all

flowcontrol hardware

login

password xxxx
