Application—SOHO off-premise extension

For a SOHO/telecommuter, the SmartNode 4520 Series router can provide an off-premise extension to the corporate network (see figure 14). Along with the analog line extension features, the SmartNode provides Internet access and VPN connectivity to the main office. In this configuration, the remote user will appear to be local and can take advantage of services available to local telephony and LAN users (such as file-server access, station-to-station dialing, outside trunk access, and voice mail). Additionally, the home user can take advantage of corporate dialing rates.
