Glossary
If a far station is not located in your own local network (LAN), but in another
LAN, this is referred to as remote.
This LAN must be connected to the local LAN over a WAN connection (over
X4000 ).
Remote access Opposite to local access, see

Remote CAPI BinTec’s own interface for
➤➤
CAPI .
The Remote CAPI interface enables all subscribers of a network to use CAPI
services, but over X4000 to a single ISDN connection. All subscribers must
have the corresponding application software installed to support the CAPI
interface. This standard interface is, however, used by most communications
applications.
X4000 is supplied as standard with suitable software (RVS-COM Lite).
BinTec’s CAPI interface is implemented as a dual-mode CAPI. CAPI 1.1 and
2.0 applications can access ISDN resources parallel to one another. This
means new CAPI 2.0 applications can be used on the network or on the same
PC parallel to old applications based on CAPI 1.1.
RIP Routing Information Protocol
Routing protocol used in networks to exchange information (routing tables)
between
➤➤
routers .
RJ45 Plug or socket for maximum eight wires. Connection for digital terminals.
Router A device that connects different networks at layer 3 of the
➤➤
OSI model and
routes information from one network to the other.
Routers are able to recognize blocks of information and evaluate addresses (as
opposed to a
➤➤
bridge , which operates with a transparent protocol). The
best paths (routes) from one point to another are chosen by using routing
tables. In order to keep the routing tables up to date, routers exchange
information between themselves via routing protocols (e.g.
➤➤
OSPF ,
➤➤
RIP ).
Modern routers such as X4000 are
➤➤
multiprotocol routers and thus
capable of routing several protocols (e.g. IP and IPX).
