Chapter 5:
Remote Node Configuration
A remote node is required for placing calls to a remote gateway. A remote node represents both the remote
gateway and the network behind it across a WAN connection. Note that when you use Menu 4 to set up
Internet access, you are actually configuring a remote node.
5.1 Remote Node Setup
This section describes the protocol-independent parameters for a remote node. Menu 4 (discussed
previously – see
Figure 4-4
) is actually a simplified setup for the remote node that you can access in Menu
11.
5.1.1 Remote Node Profile
To configure a remote node, do the following:
From the Main Menu, select menu option
11. Remote Node Setup
.
When
Menu 11.1 - Remote Node Profile
appears fill in the fields as described in the table that follows to
define this remote profile. The Remote Node Profile Menu Fields table (
Table 5-1
) shows you how to
configure the Remote Node Menu (
Figure 5-1)
.
In this chapter, we discuss the parameters that are protocol
independent.
The protocol-dependent configuration will be
covered in subsequent chapters.
