1.4 Configuring DDR
VRP1.3 provides two DDR configuration modes: Legacy DDR and Dialer Profile. The
differences between the two DDRs are given below:
z Different scopes of applications
As described above, Dialer Profile is developed to meet the needs of various d ial
configurations for some common physical interfaces. For example, with only one ISDN
BRI interface, Legacy DDR cannot enable Internet access and interconnection with
another remote terminal at the same time, but this is possible with Dialer Profile.
z Different application methods and configurations
For Legacy DDR, a dial interface may be served by multiple physical interfac es, but a
physical interface can belong to only one dial interface. A physical interface inherits the
attributes of the dial interface that it serves. A physical interface can be both bound to
the dial interface and configured as a dial interface, or directly configured as a dial
interface (which is later referred to as “a physical interface direct ly enables DDR”).
Finally, a dial interface can correspond to multiple call destination addresses through
dialer map.
For Dialer Profile, although any interface may be served by multiple physica l interfaces,
a physical interface may serve multiple dial interfaces at the same time. It is necessary
to configure authentication on the physical interface that serves Dialer Profile so that it
can find, through the subscriber name of the dial-in party, the dial interface it should
serve in this call. A physical interface must be bound to the dial interfac e to implement
dial function. Finally, a dial interface corresponds to only one call destination address
designated by the command dialer string.
By default, dialer in-band command is configured on ISDN BRI and PRI interfaces.
That is, ISDN BRI/PRI interface is designated by default to enable DDR in Legacy DDR
mode. Therefore:
z If ISDN BRI/PRI interface is configured in Legacy DDR mode, it is unnecessary to
execute dialer in-band command.
z If ISDN BRI/PRI interface is configured in Dialer Profile mode, it is necess ary to
execute no dialer in-band command first.
Described below are the configurations of Legacy DDR, Dialer Prof ile, callback and
special functions.

1.4.1 Configuring Legacy DDR

I. The configuration tasks of Legacy DDR include:

z Configure an interface to send calls
z Configure an interface to receive calls
z Configure an interface to send and receive calls
z Set the attribute parameters of Legacy DDR.

II. Configure an interface to send calls

1) Call to a single point
Step 1: enable DDR.
