4-18 MAX 6000/3000 Network Configuration Guide
Configuring Individual WAN Connections
The Connection profile
Telephone numbers
The following parameters in Ethernet > Connections > Connection profile define telephone
numbers to dial out from, telephone numbers of the calling device, and the telephone number
called to establish a connection:
Routing
The following parameters in Ethernet > Connections > Connection profile define what type of
routing is supported by way of the Connection profile, whether users have access to some or all
of the terminal-server commands, whether link-level bridging is supported, whether the MAX
unit dials this connection when it receives Ethernet broadcast packets, and whether a user can
share a profile or session:
NumPlanID NumberPlanID field in the called party’s information element.
NumPlanID is used for outbound calls made by the unit on PRI lines
so that the switch can properly interpret the telephone number dialed.
Ask your PRI provider for details.
Parameter Specifies
Parameter Specifies
Dial # The number used to dial out on this connection. It can contain up to 24
characters, which can include a dialing prefix that directs the
connection to use a trunk group or dial plan; for example:
6-1-212-555-1212.
Calling # The calling number (the far-end device's number). Many carriers
include the calling number (the far-end device's number) in each call.
Calling # is the caller ID number displayed on some phones and used
by the unit for CLID authentication.
Called # The number called to establish this connection, which is typically the
number dialed by the far end. It is presented in an ISDN message as
part of the call when DNIS is in use. In some cases, the telephone
company might present a modified called number for DNIS. This
number is used for authentication and to direct inbound calls to a
particular device from a central rotary switch or PBX.
Parameter Specifies
Route IP Whether this Connection profile supports I P routing. IP routing must
be enabled on both sides of the connection, and the MAX unit must be
configured with an IP address in the Ethernet profile. To establish an
inbound connection, IP routing must also be enabled in the Answer
profile.
Route IPX Whether this Connection profile supports IPX routin g . IPX routing
must be enabled on both sides of the connection, and the MAX unit
must be configured with an IPX network address and frame type in the
Ethernet profile. Note that the unit routes and spoofs only one IPX
frame type. Other frame types will be bridged if bridging is enabled.
