Setting Up Additional
Service Providers
A service provider is a location outside of your LAN that you would like to access
from your LAN, such as an ISP for access to the Internet or a private network such
as a remote office LAN. You can define up to four service providers (that is, remote
destinations) on the ISDN LAN Modem.
This section describes how to do the following.
■
Differentiate between an ISP and private network
■
Set up a connection to an ISP
■
Set up a connection to a private network
■
Associate computers on the LAN with selected service providers
■
Edit service provider profiles
If you set up a connection to an ISP as part of the typical (that is, initial) setup (via
the ISP Wizard), then you already have one service provider defined. Because this
is considered a typical configuration, some default values have been assumed. For
example, the connection to an ISP is associated with all of the computers
connected to your LAN. In other words, all computers (up to 10) on the LAN can
connect to that ISP and therefore the Internet. You may want to review the profile
for this ISP to see if you want to make any changes. For instructions, refer to
“Editing Service Provider Profiles.
”
ISP versus Private
Network
There are two types of service providers you may configure, an ISP and a private
network. A description of each follows.
When to Select ISP
Choose ISP when you want to set up a direct connection to the public Internet (via
an Internet Service Provider) as shown in Figure 41.
