Virtual TA Application

This chapter covers Virtual TA concepts and explains how to setup a
Virtual TA.

Quick Setup

> Virtual TA (Remote CAPI) Setup

6.1 Virtual TA Concepts

The term 

Virtual TA

 means the local Ethernet-connected hosts or

PCs use popular CAPI-based software such as RVS-COM or BVRP
etc. to access the router as a local ISDN TA for FAX sending or receiving
via the ISDN line.  Basically, it is a client/server network model.  The
Virtual TA server built into the router handles the connection
establishment and release.  The Virtual TA client, installed in the
Ethernet-connected host, creates a CAPI-based driver to relay all CAPI
messages between applications and the router's CAPI module.

Note:

1. The Virtual TA client is only supported on Microsoft

TM

Windows 95 OSR2.1/98/98SE/Me/2000 platforms.

2. The Virtual TA client only supports the CAPI 2.0 proto-
col and has no built-in FAX engine.

3. One ISDN BRI interface only has two B channels.  The
