Overview
The Nokia IP40 supports supports remote management using Out of Band Management (OOB).
To use OOB, a modem is connected to the AUX port of your appliance. The IP40 acts as a
Remote Access Server (RAS) and waits for the incoming call. An administrator can dial in to the
device using a dial-up interface, and use HTTPS, SSH, or SNMP protocols to monitor or
configure the device.
The Out of Band Management feature is useful in cases where you are unable to connect to your
device locally using either LAN, WAN or DMZ ports. In these cases, you can use OOB to bring
up your device for normal operations. The Nokia IP40 supports ISDN terminal adapter or analog
modems for modem dial-in.
To connect a modem to the Nokia IP40
1. Connect a modem to the AUX port of your IP40
2. Connect to the device from a computer configured with dial-up interface.
3. Use the username and password already defined to log in.
Configuring for OOB from the Nokia IP40 GUI
You need to configure the modem settings from the IP40 GUI before using the OOB feature.
