Call routing to the analog device ports
Because ISDN supports two independent B channels, you can use each channel separately. You can use the Netopia configuration software to route calls on telephone numbers 1 and 2 to specific analog device ports. By default, incoming calls to ISDN telephone numbers 1 and 2 ring both analog device ports simultaneously.
Using the Netopia configuration software, check the box beside the phone port(s) to which you want to route calls from telephone number 1 and telephone number 2. In the configuration software, the analog device ports are called Phone Port 1 and Phone Port 2.
Example You might want to use call routing to exclusively assign a telephone number to a device. For example, suppose you have an analog telephone attached to Phone Port 1 and a fax machine attached to Phone Port 2. To route incoming calls from telephone number 1 to the telephone and calls from telephone number 2 to the fax machine, you would do the following in the Netopia configuration software. In the Number 1 area, check the Phone Port 1 check box and uncheck the Phone Port 2 check box (this routes incoming calls on telephone number 1 to Phone Port 1). In the Phone Number 2 area, uncheck the Phone Port 1 check box and check the Phone Port 2 check box (this routes incoming calls on telephone number 2 to Phone Port 2).
