Netopia Netopia ISDN Router, R310

8-10 User’s Reference Guide

Customizing the default proﬁle

You can customize the Netopia Router’s default proﬁle in the Default Answer Proﬁle screen under the WAN

Conﬁguration menu.

1. Select Default Answer Proﬁle in the WAN Conﬁguration screen. Press Return. The Default Proﬁle screen

appears.

2. To enable CNA-authentication, select Calling Number Authentication in the Default Answer Proﬁle screen

and choose one of the following settings:

Ignored: Calling Number Authentication (CNA) is not in effect.

Preferred: This is the default setting. Authentication is attempted if the calling number is available. If

authentication fails, or the calling number is not available, the call proceeds as usual and the caller may

still connect successfully. Use this setting if you expect to receive both regular and CNA-authenticated

calls.

Required: Authentication is attempted if the calling number is available. If authentication fails, or the

calling number is not available, the Netopia R310 disconnects the caller. Use this setting if you require all

calls to be CNA-authenticated.

Calling Number Authentication (CNA), is an application of CallerID. It is a method of verifying that an

incoming call is originating from an expected site. Using CNA, you can increase the security of your network

by requiring that callers not only possess the correct PPP authentication information, but also are calling

from a particular physical location.
