(PM) Dial Out

I want to use s17 thru s19 on a PM2 (connected to USR MP/8) for network
dialout using a COM port redirector called DialOut/IP.

I'm new at this and am having trouble getting this figured out.

DialOut/IP is looking for a network address and port for each Com port
you set up. I'd like to only setup one com port at the ws that would
access the pool of 3 modems (which ever is available at the time).

Do I tell DialOut/IP that the ip address is the ether port of our PM2 or
do I have to assign an ip address to each (s17-s19) asyn port?

If I have to assign an ips address to each asyn port, how do I have a
pool of modems?

Do I assign the 3 asyn ports the same port number (6001)?

DialOut/IP also lets you "Use Telnet Protocol". Should I do this?

Which Device and Login service should I use "telnet" or "netdata"?

Should I use the group command?

Sorry for the basic questions?

I looked on Livingston's site for info related to this. If you know of
such an animal, I would appreciate the direction.

Thanks
