Overview

created and edited for each remote location you want to connect to.

 

With this profile, you specify ATM virtual circuit or Frame Relay DLCI

connection and communication to the remote site.

You first need to add a remote site profile, and then you modify the profile to include WAN connection and network information.

The following list summarizes the necessary information.

WAN — Network Service (PPP / RFC 1483/RFC 1490) information, and ATM Virtual Channel (VC) or Frame Relay (DLCI) information

IP — IP addresses, address translation tables, static routes, and RIP usage.
