Getting to Know Your Bridge/Router
Telecommuting Server / Remote Access
Your Prestige allows Remote Dial-in Users to dial-in and gain access to your LAN. This feature
enables users that have workstations with remote access capabilities (for example, Windows 95),
to dial in using a modem or an ISDN terminal adapter (TA) to access the network resources
without physically being in the office. Figure 1-6 shows how a remote user or a telecommuter can
connect to its corporate office via a modem or ISDN TA and the PSTN/ISDN network.

Telecommuting/Remote Access Application
Prestige 153/153X allows up to three simultaneous remote-access connections or one PPP/MP
bundled connection. PAP or CHAP password checking may be used to control the access from
remote users to the corporate LAN. Also, call-back can be used to authenticate connections from
remote users
