4.9 Remote configuration via Dial-Up Networking
Configuring routers at remote sites is particularly easy using the remote
configuration method via a Dial-Up Network from Windows. The device is
accessible by the administrator immediately without any settings being made
after it is switched on and connected to the WAN interface. This means that
you save a lot of time and costs when connecting other networks to your
network because you do not have to travel to the other network or instruct
the staff on-site on configuring the router.
You can also reserve a special calling number for remote configuration. Then
the support technician can always access the router even if it is really no
longer accessible due to incorrect settings.
4.9.1 This is what you need for remote configuration
A computer with a PPP client, e.g. Windows Dial-Up Networking
A program for inband configuration, e.g. ELSA LANconfig or Telnet
an ISDN card, a terminal adapter or a ELSA LANCOM Business with ELSA
LANCAPI
4.9.2 The first remote connection using a dial-up connection
햲
In the ELSA LANconfig program select Device New , enable 'Dial-Up
Network' as the connection type and enter the calling number of the
WAN interface to which the
ELSA LANCOM Business is connected. If you
wish, you can also enter the time period after which an idle connection is
to be disconnected automatically.
햳
ELSA LANconfig now automatically generates a new entry under Dial-Up
Networking. Select a device that supports PPP (e.g. the NDIS WAN driver
included with the
LANCAPI ) for the connection and press OK to confirm.
