General Tab
The General tab allows you to configure your location as well as the protocol you wish to use.
If your DIVAT/A does not have phone ports, this is also where you specify your ISDN directory
numbers. For DIVAT/A models with phone ports, this tab allows you to enable or disable
individual ports; directory numbers are specified in the Phone Port tabs (see page 41).
Of the screen captures shown below, the first one is the ‘General’ tab for devices with phone
ports; the second one is for devices that do not have phone ports.
Country
This setting ensures that the correct options specific to your country are used. If your country
is not listed, select ‘Other’ and default options will be used.
Data
The data protocol must match the remote ISDN device to which you are going to connect.
Your options are ‘PPP’, ‘MultiLink PPP’, ‘MultiLink PPP with BACP’, ‘MultiLink PPP with AODI’,
‘V.110’, and ‘V.120’.
Setting Description
PPP ‘PPP’ operates on a single ISDN channel. Since two ISDN channels are available, the
DIVAT/A can support two PPP connections at the same time. This is useful if you
need to have two connections running concurrently. For example, you could use one
channel to maintain a connection to the Internet, and another to connect to a
remote corporate network. Or perhaps you wish to support incoming data calls, as a
PPP connection will never be disconnected to allow an incoming or outgoing analog
call. Note that if two PPP connections are active, no analog calls can be made.
