console-login
Enables the user to be prompted for a user ID and password on the
physical console. This is useful for security situations. If you do not
configure any administrative users and you enable this feature, the following
message appears:
Warning: Console login is disabled until an
administrative user is added.
Attention: Before enabling console login, save the configuration with
console login disabled. If login authentication is set to a remote
server using Radius or Tacacs+ and the router is unable to
reach the authentication server, then access to the router is
denied. By disabling the console login, a lock-out situation is
prevented.

command.
modem-control [carrier-wait or ring-wait] [service1 or service2]
Sets up the router for login on the physical console, if the physical console
is connected to the router through a modem. Before using this command,
be sure to:
v Set your modem for auto-answer.
v Verify that the console baud rate is equal to the modem baud rate.
v Verify that the cable connecting the modem to the router is configured
correctly.
v Turn echo off by using the ATE0 command.
v Run in quiet mode by using the ATQ1 command.
v Verify that any necessary jumpers are set. Refer to your router’s
User’s

more information.
The router automatically hangs up the modem when you log out. Also, if
your modem becomes disconnected from the router while you are using it,
the router logs you out.
Specify the service port for both the enable modem-control carrier-wait
and the enable modem-control ring-wait commands. For routers with two
service ports, also specify to which service port you connected the modem,
either service1 or service2. To enable
both
service ports, enable them
separately.
Note: No console connection can be made with the router after enabling
modem control unless you clear all configuration and restart the
router.
You can tell the router to wait for the carrier-detect signal from the modem
before sending Request to Send. This is the standard method of modem
control.
