Remote Node Configuration

This chapter covers the parameters that are protocol independent. The p rotocol-

dependent configuration (TCP/IP) is covered in the next chapter.

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 connectio n. Note that when you use Menu 4 to set up

Internet access, you are actually configuring one of the remote nodes. Once a remote node is configured

correctly, traffic to the remote network will trigger your Prestige to make a call automatically, i.e., Dia l On

Demand.

4.1 Remote Node Setup

This section describes the protocol-independent parameters for a remote node.

configure.
