NOTE: Some features documented in this online help may not be available on your system's remote access controller (RAC). |
The Add Dial-In User and Configure Dial-In User windows are identical. Use these windows to configure a Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) user who is allowed to establish a dial-in connection. See "RAC User Types" for information on the differences among dial-in users and other users.

User Name | Specifies or edits the dial-in
PPP user name.
This name is the user name used by the initial caller. A dial-in (PPP) user is not a RAC user. Requiring a dial-in user name and password helps to ensure that the dial-in connection is allowed. When the RAC log-in screen appears over the dial-in connection, dial-in users are still prompted for their RAC user name and password. See the Add/Configure Remote Access Controller User window (accessed through the Users tab) for information on adding RAC users. |
Password | Specifies or edits the dial-in password for the current PPP user. |
Callback Number |
Specifies or edits the session callback number. The callback number is a number that the RAC calls back when contacted by this dial-in user. This feature enables you to ensure that even when the RAC is contacted by a valid dial-in user, the RAC disconnects and calls back to a known, secure management console. The RAC uses the Callback Number only when Authentication is set to Preset. |
Callback Type |
Specifies whether you want the RAC to call back, and if so, specify how it
should obtain the callback number that you want the RAC to call.
The values are:
|
Remove | Deletes the current dial-in user. |
Apply Changes | Adds a new dial-in user or commits changes made to the current dial-in user. |
