D-Link DI-206 manual Outgoing, Dhcp Configuration

DI-206 ISDN Remote Router

the router will disconnect the initial call and call back to the phone number that you provide. Note that this field will be valid only if the Direction setting above is Both.

•Outgoing

•Name – The maximum length is 64 characters. Spaces and punctuation are not usually accepted. This username is for password challenges (authentication) which are automatically handled by the router when dialing out. The DI-206 will use PAP and CHAP (whichever works) to make the connection.

•Password – This is the password associated with the above Name field.

•Remote IP Address – This is the IP address that will be assigned to the dial-in network when the IP Address Supply setting below is set to Default. Assigning an IP address to the router dialing in ensures that the IP address does not clash with other IP addresses on your network. For dial out connections utilizing dial on demand, the IP address of the remote router needs to be entered here so the router knows which remote network to establish a connection with to deliver the packet.

•IP Address Supply – This field defines how the router will assign an IP address to a device dialing in. The choices include:

Default – Uses the Remote IP address defined above, Dynamic - Taken from the Dial In IP pool, or

None - The remote user supplies their own IP Address.

•Multi-Link PPP – Enables/disables multi-link PPP on this port. Individual ISDN ports can be set to join the MLPPP bundle by enabling Multi-Link on each port. When enabled, the port will join the MLPPP bundle. Please note that the DI-206 contains only one MLPPP bundle. All ports taking part in MLPPP, even the first or primary port which initially establishes the connection, must have Multi-Link enabled. The ISDN port that first established the connection is the Primary ISDN Port and will not disconnect due to a BOD Low Threshold event, but is subject to Dial on Demand (DOD) settings.

•Compression – Enables or disables Stac compression. This is an industry standard using a 4:1 compression scheme. When enabled, the router will try to use Stac compression on the designated ISDN port whenever possible. If the destination device is not capable of using Stac compression, the two devices will still communicate, albeit without using Stac compression. When disabled, Stac compression will never be used on this port.

•State – Enables or disables this Remote Network Profile.

Select Connect Test at the bottom of the screen to test if your setup is correct.

DHCP Configuration

The DI-206 Router implements the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), which allows the entire IP network to be centrally managed by the router. It does this by assigning IP addresses and configuration parameters to hosts as they are powered
