DI-1162/DI-1162M Remote Access Router

Select an entry from above and hit <Enter>. This screen will be blank if a remote network profile has not been configured yet.

The parameters in the above window are described as follows:

Remote Name – Name for the remote network that the DI-1162/DI-1162M is being set up to connect with.

Direction – Dial-[In], dial-[Out], or [Both]. This field defines whether the router on the other network will dial-[In] to the DI-1162/DI-1162M to establish a connection, the router will dial-[Out] to the other network, or a connection can be established [Both] ways.

When this is set to In, the DI-1162/DI-1162M will only establish a connection with the other network by receiving calls on the WAN port specified in the Interface field below. Also, the incoming calls will be subject to the Name, Password, and Rem CLID fields in the Incoming section below.

When this is set to Out, the router will only make calls on the WAN interface specified in the Interface field below. Also, the outgoing calls will be subject to the Name, Password and Phone Number fields in the Outgoing section below.

When set to Both, the dial in and dial out conditions described above will both be observed.

Interface WAN1 or WAN2. This field is used to assign a remote network to a logical (virtual) interface called a virtual circuit. More than one remote network can be configured to use the same interface, but they cannot be connected at the same time. Thus, if you wish to have two WAN connections operate simultaneously, make sure they are configured on different interfaces. On the other hand, if you have two dial-out remote network profiles but wish to keep one line always open for dial-in users, make sure the two dial-out profiles use the same interface. In this case, the two profiles will share the same interface; the second one using it after the first one’s idle time has expired and it has relinquished it.

Backup Intf – Enter a backup interface in this field is desired.

Phone - This is the telephone number that will be dialed to make the outgoing connection.

Idle Time – This is the elapsed time (in seconds), of inactivity, that will trigger the router to disconnect this interface.

Script File ID – This is the ID in the Script File Configuration menu.
