Multiple Connections from a Single Site

In some instances it is likely that you will need to connect to Novell servers on one site, IP hosts on the same remote site or possibly a different remote site and a connection into the Internet. This can all be achieved by running the Quick Configuration several times until all the desired types of connection have been configured. The only thing you need to be aware of is that you cannot bridge and route the same protocol on the same AccessBuilder bridge/router.

The local site shown in Figure 1-5is a small business that needs data links to several of its clients and a connection to the Internet. It has an IPX connection to access information on one client’s NetWare server and IP routed connections to several IP hosts at different clients’ sites. Finally, there is a connection to the local Internet service provider’s PPP router giving fast access to the Internet. All connections can be set up with an autocall so that connections to the remote sites are made as soon as the Bridge/Router Module identifies data not destined for the local network.
