Chapter 21
Remote Node Configuration
This chapter shows you how to set up remote nodes on the WAN side.
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. When you use menu 4 to set up Internet
access, you are configuring one of the remote nodes.
21.1 Remote Node Profile
Use
Menu 11-Remote Node Profile
to setup the remote node.
From the main menu, enter 11 to display
Menu 11-Remote Node Profile
as shown in .
21.1.1 Encapsulation Scenarios
For Internet access you should use the encapsulation used by your ISP.
Nailed-Up Connection (PPPoE/PPTP)
A nailed-up connection is a dial-up line where the connection is always up regardless of traffic demand.
The ZyAIR does two things when you specify a nailed-up connection. The first is that idle timeout is
disabled. The second is that the ZyAIR will try to bring up the connection when turned on and whenever the
connection is down. A nailed-up connection can be very expensive for obvious reasons.
Do not specify a nailed-up connection unless your ISP offers flat-rate service or you need a constant
connection and the cost is of no concern.
