Our internal InfoSec group is wanting us to have this feature as we already
implement it on external modems.

How useful is OOB access in a recovery situation via one of these WICs?

The real benefit to an external modem connected to a console port is that
you can remotely recover from a router crashed to rommon, watch the router
boot, etc. Is any of that possible with an analog modem WIC?

Ben, Its not that useful with the modem wic. If, say, you are in ROMMON or
something like that you will not be able to get an exec through the WIC.

Ron, I just looked in the Conexant SmartSCM manual (which is the chipset
that the wic-1/2am uses) and I didn't see anything about the password
feature...but maybe I looked too quick. If you want I can send you the PDF
offline.

This router is a term server for the rest of the devices on the network.
If they go belly up, or the network chokes and dies, we want OOB access to
the rest of the devices. If the term server itself dies, the WIC-1AM won't
do us any good anyways.

Thanks!
