ASYNC ROUTER AR-P, AR-5, AND SYNC ROUTER USER’S MANUAL

•Remote Client IP address—Enter an optional IP address a remote client uses to access the Router using that modem port. You or your network administrator must decide whether to assign an IP address to a remote client modem. The default is no IP address assigned to a remote client when they dial in.

If you assign an IP address to a modem line that is configured for client access (on the Router), then that IP address is automatically assigned to the remote client, during the remote-client login process. Any remote client application (operating on the remote user’s PC) must be configured with the same IP address (assigned to the line used for the client to dial in). The IP address assigned by the Router (to the Router modem) always overrides any IP address set by the remote client application.

If you choose not to assign an IP address to a modem, then the remote client application must supply the IP address to be assigned to the remote client at login time. To configure a client’s IP address in the Remote Office software, click on the More button for your phonebook record, and then click on the Protocol button.

NOTE

The IP address assigned to the remote client must always be a valid IP address on the subnet to which the Router is attached.

Client access is not supported over the sync0 interface (Sync Router).

•client access shift—Enter the client access shift, which is valid for all modems configured for client access. The Router uses the client access shift to restrict remote client access to a specific time period: either inside of (during) the client access shift, outside of (not during) the client access shift, or both insid e and outside of the client access shift.

The client access shift is designated by a starting time and an ending time, in standard 24-hour format (0800 corresponds to 8:00 AM, 1700 corresponds to 5:00 PM, etc.). A sequence of letters corresponds to the days of the week for which the client access shift applies:

•M for Monday,

•T for Tuesday

•W for Wednesday

•R for Thursday

•F for Friday

•S for Saturday

•U for Sunday

Enter the starting time, the ending time, and the days of the week, on the same line, separated by single spaces. For example, “0800 1700 MTWRF” defines a typical 8-a.m. to 5-p.m. workweek.

5.4.4SYNC ROUTER PARAMETERS

Parameters specific to the Sync Router are listed here. Refer to the Modem parameters section for parameters not listed here.

•sync0—The synchronous interface (Sync Router only).

•Is this a leased line?—Enter yes or no. You can use the sync0 port to connect to another Sync Router (or other similar system) either via a leased line (dedicated) or via a non-leased line (switched circuit).
