Corporate network
connection
To connect to a WAN partner (e.g. head office), you will need some information
about the remote terminal that is to take your call. Likewise, the remote terminal
must have information about you. These data must be agreed between both
ends of the connection.
X3200 and the router at your HQ check the incoming data before every connec-
tion to see if they should take the call from the partner. To protect the network
against unauthorized access, the call is accepted only after correct authentica-
tion. This authentication is based on a common password and two codes that
you and your partner use for the connection.
Some ISPs also offer the option of accessing the Internet without logging in
first ("Internet by call"). This means you can check immediately whether your
Internet access works with
X3200 , even if you want to apply to another ISP for
your personal access data later on.
