3.10.5 Call Control

Some applications require that the router (only for i models) be remotely activated, or be able to dial up to the ISP via the ISDN interface. Vigor routers provide this feature which allows you to make a phone call to the router and then ask it to dial up to the ISP.

Note: Call Control is only available for i models equipped with the ISDN interface.

Please set Dialing to a Single ISP first before configuring this web page.

Dial Retry

It specifies the dial retry counts per triggered packet. A

 

triggered packet is the packet whose destination is outside the

 

local network. The default setting is no dial retry. If set to 5,

 

for each triggered packet, the router will dial 5 times until it is

 

connected to the ISP or remote access router.

Dial Delay Interval

It specifies the interval between dialup retries. By default, the

 

interval is 0 second.

Remote Activation

It specifies a phone number in the Remote Activation field to

 

enable the remote activation function. If the router accepts a

 

call from the number 12345678, it will terminate the incoming

 

call immediately and dial to the ISP.

Link Type

Because ISDN has two B channels (64Kbps/per channel), you

 

can specify whether you would like to have single B channel,

 

two B channels or BOD (Bandwidth on Demand). Four

 

options are available: Link Disable, Dialup 64Kbps, Dialup

 

128Kbps, Dialup BOD.

PPP Authentication

It specifies the PPP authentication method for PPP/MP

 

connections. Normally you can set it to PAP/CHAP for better

 

compatibility.
