We have some "tip" modems on a Unix system, which, for various reasons,
we would like to relocate to our Cisco Terminal Server, as a
dialout pool.  Having done some experimentation, I've come up
with an ip alias for the rotary containing the modems.  Thus,
a simple "telnet modem" from one of our Unix systems gets you
a modem.  Currently the speed you get seems to be the following,
partly due to a "telnet speed 1200 2400" being in effect on the
lines in the dialout group.
	1.  If you are on a terminal server port, at a speed
	    of 1200, and you connect to the "modem" group, 
	    you get a speed of "1200".
	2.  If you are on a terminal server port at a speed
	    of 2400 or above, you get a modem speed of 2400.
	3.  If you are on a Unix host, and "telnet" to the
	    "modem", you get a speed of 2400.
The one part of this I haven't found an answer for, is how
does a user, on a Unix host, set the speed that the "modem"
will operate at?   Along the same lines, how does a user,
on a Unix host, select the parity and data bits to be used
for a particular session on the dialout modem?

Thanks in advance,
Ric
