Con®guring PPP Callback

Callback is a PPP feature associated with single user dial-in solutions. It attempts to accomplish two objectives. These objectives are:

vCallback can be used as a form of security. When used in this way, callback is generally referred to as required callback. When required callback is negotiated the user will be dialed back at a predetermined number. Only then will the PPP link be allowed to come up.

vCallback can also be implemented as a toll-saver feature. When used in this way, callback is generally referred to as roaming callback. Unlike required callback, roaming callback is requested by the client. The primary function of roaming callback is to bill the company maintaining the DIALs Server the toll charges instead of the user.

 

Callback is supported only on dial-in dial circuits over V.34 or ISDN networks.
