You might consider:

1.  Having your dial-in modem bank, modem pool, or access switch, whichever
you use, outside the firewall.
2.  Having a terminal server on the inside of the firewall.
3.  Configuring your firewall to restrict/allow dial-in traffic through the
firewall, but only between the switch and the server.
4.  Inbound traffic is only allowed to the terminal server from the switch
and outbound is only allowed to the switch from the terminal.  Additional
access control,  routing control, and net management at the terminal server
and switch would prevent unauthorized traffic from entering/leaving your
network.
