The OnSite administrator needs to do the following tasks on the command line to configure dial-out.
Edit the /etc/generic-dial.conf to enable dial-out for the port. Edit /etc/pcmcia/serial.opts file as follows:
• If the GSM card SIM requires a PIN, specify the PIN
• Inactivate mgetty on the port to allow the port to be controlled by the pppd application. Create a static route on the OnSite to the network where the device resides or to the device itself. Configure automatic restart of dial-out after a reboot, and start dial-out.
