DI-308 ISDN Remote Router

Rem CLID – Remote Caller ID. This is the telephone number of the Remote

User and is used for security. When a phone number is entered in this field, the
router will make sure that the incoming call is coming from the same phone
number as the one defined here. In other words, the remote user can only be
calling from the telephone number defined here, otherwise the call will not be
accepted. This function is disabled if the field is left blank.

Default IP – This is the IP address that will be assigned to the dial-in user when

the IP Address Supply setting below is set to Default. Assigning an IP address to
the remote computer ensures that the IP address does not clash with other IP
addresses on your network.

IP Address Supply This field defines how the remote user will obtain an IP

address. The choices include:

Default – Uses the Default IP address defined above,

Dynamic - Taken from the Dial In IP pool, or

None - The remote user supplies their own IP Address.

Call Back – This field determines if the router will allow call back to the Remote

Dial-In User upon dial-in. If this option is enabled, the router will be able to call
back to the Remote Dial-In User if they request it. In such a case, the router will
disconnect the initial call from this user and dial back to the specified call back
number. The default is no call back.

Phone Number Supplied by – Toggle between Router and Caller.

Phone Number – If Router is selected above, then this phone number is usually

provided by the person who initially set up the router. If Caller is selected, you
must enter the phone number that will be called back yourself.

Idle Time – This is the elapsed time (in seconds) since the last valid or active

packets have gone through the router. This setting will trigger the router to
disconnect this interface when it is reached.

State – Enables or disables this User Profile.

Remote Network Profile

The Remote Network Profile is used to configure the router for ISDN connections to
other networks. In practice, the DI-308 will either dial-out to or receive incoming
calls from another router, the ‘gateway’ to the other network.
