•Select IP Routing (NAT Disabled) to connect other IP segments through the serial async port. See the IP Routing instructions continue on page 26.

Remote Access

You must define the location of your remote user account database by selecting Use Local Client List or Use RADIUS Server.

Note: The Local Client List allows you to add a maximum of 64 users.

Use Local Client List

Use Local Client List allows you to create an authentication database consisting of user names, passwords and dial-in options for each remote user. You must provide the following information for each client:

User Name

Enter the User Name to authenticate the remote dial-in user.

Password

Enter the Password to authenticate the remote dial-in user. Passwords are limited to 16 characters.

Password Verification

Re-enter the remote dial-in user’s password.

Callback Type

Select one of the following three callback options for each remote client:

•No Callback: Select this option to allow the remote user to immediately connect to the network after being authenticated. This is the default setting.

•Fixed Callback: This option allows you to specify a fixed callback telephone number for the user. After the PPP negotiation, the device will disconnect, then callback the telephone number you entered. This option is best used for clients requiring callback security while dialing-in from the same location each time.
