Configuration Tips
The following sections give you an overview of what you need to configure,
depending on the functionality you need. For specific instructions on configuring
your server, refer to the Microsoft SBS documentation.
Fax Server Configuration
By default, Fax Server is configured for outbound fax service only. If you have to
provide inbound fax service, you need to change the default configuration.
If ISDN Multiple Subscriber Numbering (MSN) is configured on your ISDN line,
you can separate incoming fax calls from incoming RAS analog or GSM data
calls; to do this, assign a unique MSN number for each service (that is, for fax and
for RAS).
Note ISDN multiple subscriber numbering allows you to assign a unique number
to each service or device.
If MSN is not configured on your ISDN line, and you need to support incoming
analog and GSM data calls, you should keep the default Fax Server configuration
(outbound fax service only).
Remote Access Service (RAS) Configuration
Outbound calls
By default, RAS is configured for outbound calls only.
If you plan to use Microsoft Proxy Server to provide Internet Access for
computers in the LAN, you need to specify TCP/IP as the dial-out protocol in the
RAS configuration.
Inbound calls
If you need to accept calls to the RAS server, you have to change the default
configuration.
You should use the WAN Miniport interfaces (ISDN 1 and ISDN 2 DIWAN) for
RAS, rather than the DIVA virtual modems. This is because the Eicon WAN
Miniport driver automatically detects and accepts the protocol of the incoming
call: synchronous PPP, V.120, V.110, analog V.34 (if you configured inbound
analog calls), or GSM.
If you need to accept analog calls through the WAN Miniport interfaces, you need
to configure the WAN Miniport Adapter accordingly.
If you configured inbound calls to the RAS server, you also have to set the dialin
permissions for each user who has to dial into the RAS server. Refer to the
Microsoft SBS documentation for more information on configuring the RAS
service and user permissions.
