It's up to you. You can plug a VT100 if you can borrow one from a museum, a modem if you want to experiment with PPP, whatever.

MODEMTEST(1p)						User Contributed Perl Documentation					     MODEMTEST(1p)

NAME

       modemtest - Tool to examining your modem through Perl's Device::SerialPort

SYNOPSIS

       modemtest [OPTS] [DEVICE [BAUD [DATA [PARITY [STOP [FLOW]]]]]]

	DEVICE	  Device to use as a serial port (default: "/dev/modem")
	BAUD	  Serial speed to use		 (default: 9600)
	DATA	  Number of databits to use	 (default: 8)
	PARITY	  Type of parity to use 	 (default: "none")
	STOP	  Number of stop bits to use	 (default: 1)
	FLOW	  Kind of flow control to use	 (default: "none")

DESCRIPTION

       Some systems, serial ports, and modem behave in strange ways.  To test the capabilities of Perl's Device::SerialPort, this tool queries the
       system settings for the given DEVICE, and attempts to set up the port and send the initialization string "ATE1" to the modem, reporting the
       results seen.
