9.

Use the down arrow to display the IP menu parameters in the right
pane.

10. Move the cursor over the Route menu and press Return.
11. Enter the IP address and Netmask parameters of the access server at

the remote site. This creates a static route to the access server’s net-
work which is entered into the Express 4100/4110’s IP route table.

12. Move the cursor over the RIP menu. Check with the network admin-

istrator for the type of routing protocol used. The Express 4100/4110
supports RIP versions 1 and 2. The protocol is set in the Protocol
parameter.

13. Select Yes for the Triggered parameter. This will prevent periodic RIP

updates that keep the ISDN link from going “idle.”

14. Select Yes for the Retain parameter. This will allow the routes learned

from the access server to be saved in the IP routing table. Access to
any of those networks from the workstation will cause this profile to
be dialed.

15. Use the left arrow to get back to the previous menu. Use the down

arrow to view the IPX menu parameters in the right pane.

16. This is similar to steps 13 and 14. Select Yes for Triggered and Yes for

Retain

. This will allow the ISDN link to go to an idle state and permit

the Express 4100/4110 to “spoof” the server information obtained
from the access server. A similar configuration must be selected on the
access server.

17. Use the arrows to get the Dial Out menu parameters for this profile.
18. Enter the phone number of the access server in Number 1. If config-

ured by the administrator to use two B-channels using Multilink PPP,
set the Initial Channels field to 2. Some PPP protocols, if they exist in
the access server, will allow the second channel to come into play
only if the bandwidth is needed. If this is the case, the Express 4100/
4110 will automatically negotiate this with the access server.

19. Now move to the Bandwidth menu for this profile. Once there, use

the right arrow to move to the On Demand submenu.

20. Set the Mode parameter to On. This enables the dynamic bandwidth

features of the Express 4100/4110.

21. Select the Idle Timeout parameter and enter the number of seconds

the Express 4100/4110 should wait before hanging up the connection
when no traffic is present. A value of 120 seconds is typical. A value
of 0 means never idle the link.
