♦
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.
◊
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 Caller is selected above, then this phone number is usually provided by the person who
initially set up the router. If Router is selected, you must enter the phone number that will be called back
yourself.
♦
Idle Time – This is the elapsed time (in seconds), of inactivity, that will trigger the router to disconnect this
interface.
♦
State – Enables/disables this User Profile.
Remote Network Profile
The Remote Network Profile is used to configure the router for WAN connections to other networks. In
practice, the DI-1162/DI-1162M will either dial-out to or receive incoming calls from another router, the
‘gateway’ to the other network.
