Chapter 1: Understanding ISDN and the Express XL/XLT
2.IP Router: The Express XL/XLT can function as an IP router using the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) for advertising and learning routes among other routers. Static routes may also be entered into the routing ta- ble.
3.IPX Router: IPX routers and services can be exchanged between the Ex- press XL/XLT and other devices using RIP and Service Advertising Pro- tocol (SAP). Watch dog serialization filtering and spoofing can permit the ISDN to be idle during no application traffic periods.
4.Network Address Translation (NAT): Single networks can connect to the Internet with this function. The Express XL/XLT translates outgoing IP packets over the ISDN to the IP router at the Internet Service Provider.
Popular Internet applications are supported.
5.POTS: The POTS interface can be used for interfacing to dual tone multi- frequency (DTMF) analog devices such as telephones, modems, fax ma- chines, etc. The Express XLT POTS option is available on part number 1200070L2 only.
