5.2 X3200 and the WAN
If you have carried out the configuration steps in chapter 5.1, page 103 , X3200
is set up for your
➤➤
LAN . If you also want to access hosts outside your LAN,
e.g. to surf the
➤➤
Internet , then this chapter will be of interest to you.
The following points are considered:
■
General configuration of
➤➤
WAN partners :
To enable X3200 to make connections to networks outside your LAN, you
must configure the desired connection partners as WAN partners on your
X3200 . This applies to outgoing connections ( X3200 dials its WAN partner),
incoming connections (a WAN partner dials the number of your X3200 ) and
leased lines. If you want to access the Internet, you must configure your In-
ternet Service Provider (
➤➤
ISP ) as a WAN partner. If you wish to estab-
lish a LAN-LAN connection, e.g. between your LAN and the LAN of your
head office (corporate network connection), you must configure the LAN of
your head office as a WAN partner.
How to configure a WAN partner on your X3200 is explained in general
terms in chapter 5.2.1, page 131 .
If you configured one or two leased lines at the S
0
connection (see
chapter 5.1.4, page 112 ) during configuration of X3200 ’s WAN interface, a
WAN partner entry for each leased line appears automatically in the WAN
Partner menu. Edit this entry to suit your requirements.
■
Examples of configuring a WAN partner for Internet access:
You will find examples of how to set up an ISP as a WAN partner in
chapter 5.2.2, page 155 . Here you will find a quick procedure if you want to
access the Internet with X3200 via one of the following providers:
– T-Online
– Telekom Austria
– Compuserve
Two examples are given for the provider T-Online. The first explains how to
configure a high-speed Internet access. The second example describes the
procedure for configuring conventional access.
