Remote access service (RAS) in Windows NT

To use RAS with Windows NT, you must first install the NDIS WAN CAPI Device Driver for ISDN/CAPI 2.0 in Windows NT. This device driver works with both Windows NT 3.51 and Windows NT 4.0. Installation of the device driver is fully described in the accompanying documentation. You can set up connections to a Windows 95 computer as the RAS server. The Windows 95 server might use the modem NDIS WAN Line 1 or Line 2 in its Dial-Up Server configuration. Please make certain of the following:

•the same network protocols are installed on both computers and configured for RAS connections

•the necessary rights have been granted (RAS dial-in access, access rights for resources, etc.)

For further information, please see the documentation that comes with Windows NT.

If you are using third-party products as RAS servers, determine the required configuration for the PPP protocols being used (synchronous or asynchronous), and for the ISDN B-channel protocols.

Multilink PPP connections

The capabilities of Windows 95 Dial-Up Networking are considerably extended by installing the MS ISDN Accelerator Pack. This extension allows you to set up Multilink PPP connections, in which both ISDN B-channels are bundled in a single network connection to one destination. This doubles the available bandwidth. Before you set up a multilink PPP connection, please note the following:

Before you set up a multilink PPP connection, please note the following:

•The remote site, that is, your ISP, must also support multilink connections.

•RAS connections (see Section 4) can also use multilink PPP. This is done by configuring the second modem, NDIS WAN Line 2, to answer incoming calls on the RAS server.

To set up a multilink PPP connection, proceed as follows:

1.Create a new connection in the Dial-Up Networking window.

2.With the right mouse button, click the connection and select Properties.

3.Click Settings in the Set additional devices field.

4.Activate the option Use additional devices, then click Add.

5.In the Device Name list, select the modem entry not yet used, for example, NDIS WAN Line 2. In the Phone number field, enter the same number you entered when creating the connection in Step 1 above.
