Remote Node Configuration

In this chapter, we discuss the parameters that are protocol independent. The protocol-dependent configuration will be covered in subsequent chapters. For TCP/IP, see Chapter 5, for IPX, see Chapter 6 and for Bridging, see Chapter 7.

A remote node is required for placing calls to a remote gateway. A remote node represents both the remote gateway and the network behind it across a WAN connection. Note that when you use Menu 4 to set up Internet access, you are actually configuring one of the remote nodes.

4.1Remote Node Setup

This section describes the protocol-independent parameters for a remote node.

To configure a remote node, follow these steps:

Step 1. From the Main Menu, select menu option 1. Remote Node Setup

Step 2. When Menu 11 appears, as shown below, enter the number of the remote node that you wish to configure.
