DI-308 ISDN Remote Router

calling from the telephone number defined here, otherwise the call will not be accepted. This function is disabled if the field is left blank.

Call Back – This field determines whether the router calls back after receiving a call from this Remote Network Profile. If this option is enabled, the router will disconnect the initial call and call back to the phone number that you provide. Note that this field will be valid only if the Direction setting above is Both.

Name – The maximum length is 64 characters. Spaces and punctuation are not usually accepted. This username is for password challenges (authentication) which are automatically handled by the router when dialing out. The DI-308 will use PAP and CHAP (whichever works) to make the connection.

Password – This is the password associated with the above Name field.

Remote IP Address – This is the IP address that will be assigned to the dial-in network when the IP Address Supply setting below is set to Default. Assigning an IP address to the router dialing in ensures that the IP address does not clash with other IP addresses on your network. For dial out connections utilizing dial on demand, the IP address of the remote router needs to be entered here so the router knows which remote network to establish a connection with to deliver the packet.

IP Address Supply – This field defines how the router will assign an IP address to a device dialing in. The choices include:

Default – Uses the Remote IP address defined above, Dynamic - Taken from the Dial In IP pool, or

None - The remote user supplies their own IP Address.

Multi-Link PPP – Enables or disables multi-link PPP on this remote node. Both MLPPP and Bandwidth On Demand (BOD) must be enabled for BOD to function. If MLPPP is enabled and BOD is disabled, then both ports will dial up, establish a direct connection, and combine the bandwidth of the two connections using the MLPPP protocol. Please note that the DI-308 contains only one MLPPP bundle.

Compression – This is an industry standard, 4:1 Stac compression scheme. When enabled, the router will try to use compression on this remote node whenever possible. If the destination device is not capable of using Stac compression, the two devices will still communicate, albeit without using Stac compression. When disabled, compression will never be used on this remote node.

State – Enables or disables this Remote Network Profile.

DHCP Configuration

The DI-308 Router implements the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), which allows the entire IP network to be centrally managed by the router. It does this by assigning IP addresses and configuration parameters to hosts as they are powered on and come onto the network. This can be a great help for network administration
