How do I configure the V!CAS as a dynamic IP address server?
The V!CAS can be configured as an IP address server that assigns IP ad-
dresses to ISDN dialup partners at connection time. Upon accepting a di-
alup connection from from a client, the V!CAS assigns the host an IP ad-
dress from a pool of pre-configured addresses. Then a host route is added
to the IP route table. Once the dialup connection closes, the IP address is
returned to the pool, and the IP route is deleted.
Before you begin
You’ll need the following information.
• One or more IP addresses to put in the address pool.
Configure it
Address pool
Define the set of IP addresses the V!CAS should use for dialup clients.
IP Address
<1st address in the block>
Number of consecutive addresses
<total # of addresses>
If you don’t have a complete block of addresses you’ll have to assign
each address individually.
Dialup Clients
