Remote Node Setup

This chapter shows you how to configure a remote node.

A remote node is required for placing calls to a remote gateway. A remote node represents both the remote gateway and the network behind it across a WAN connection. Note that when you use menu 4 to set up Internet access, you are actually configuring a remote node. We will show you how to configure the following menus:

Menu 11.1 — Remote Node Profile
Menu 11.3 — Remote Node Network Layer Options
Menu 11.5 — Remote Node Filter.

4.1Remote Node Profile

From the main menu, enter 11 to display Menu 11.1 Remote Node Profile. There are three variations of this menu depending on whether you choose Ethernet Encapsulation, PPTP or PPPoE Encapsulation.

4.1.1 Ethernet Encapsulation

Choose the Ethernet option when the WAN port is used as a regular Ethernet. The first menu 11.1 screen you see is for Ethernet Encapsulation shown next.
