Remote Node Configuration
A Remote Node represents both a remote gateway and the internet behind it, across an ISDN connection. A Remote Node is required for placing calls to or answering calls from a remote network. Note that when you use Menu 4 to configure the Internet, the Prestige will automatically add a Remote Node for you. Once a Remote Node is configured properly, traffic to the remote LAN will trigger the Prestige to make a call automatically (i.e., Dial On Demand). Similarly, calls from the remote LAN will be answered automatically and security will be checked.
In this chapter, we will discuss the parameters that are protocol independent. The protocol dependent configuration will be covered in subsequent chapters. For TCP/IP, see Chapter 7. For IPX, see Chapter 8. For bridging, see Chapter 9.
From the Main Menu, enter 11 to go to Menu 11 - Remote Node Setup. When in menu 11, enter the number of the Remote Nodes (1 to 4) that you wish to configure as shown below:
