Getting to Know Your Router/Hub
Multiprotocol/Multiport LAN-to-LAN Connection
Your Prestige can dial to or answer calls from another remote access router connected to a
different network. The Prestige supports TCP/IP, Novell IPX, and has the capability to bridge any
Ethernet protocol. Your Prestige can also bundle several WAN ports in one LAN-to-LAN
connection for greater bandwidth. A typical LAN-to-LAN application for your Prestige 128MH is
to connect the Corporate Office LAN of your company with the Branch Office, as shown in
Figure 1-4.

LAN-to-LAN Connection Application
Dial-On-Demand
Also, with the automatic Dial-On-Demand, your Prestige 128MH makes a connection only when
data is transferred between the Corporate LAN and the Branch Office. Dial-On-Demand
minimizes connection charges and user intervention.
