5 Connection via 2-Mbit interface
This chapter contains technical details related to the most important feature
of your
ELSA LANCOM Business 6000 : connections via the 2-Mbit
interface(s). The description will focus on the configuration of connections,
i.e. software settings.
5.1 Areas of application
What is your intended use for the 2-Mbit connection? First, a look at the most
important applications:
Fast Internet connections for a network
Many Internet service providers offer 2-Mbit Internet connections.
Thanks to the IP router function integrated in the
ELSA LANCOM
Business 6000 , Internet access is available to every workstation in the
network.
Interconnection of two networks
A leased line is generally used for the interconnection of two LANs. With
the
ELSA LANCOM Business 6000 , this interconnection is realized by
routing packets to the remote network. Unlike with a bridging solution,
the two networks continue to appear as two separate networks. You can,
however, grant any workstation of either network access to the resources
of the remote network. Far-reaching interconnected network systems can
set up using multiple routers.
Dial-up access points for remote access
Many telecommunications providers offer primary rate interfaces (PMxA,
or PRI for
P rimary R ate I nterface). Up to 30 parallel ISDN D channel
connections can be established using a PMxA. The individual channels
are independent of one another and can establish connections to a
variety of remote ISDN stations. For example, up to 30 remote
workstations can establish parallel dial-up connections to a corporate
network via ISDN in this configuration.
ELSA LANCOM Business is designed for use on fixed connections. It
cannot be used on a PMxA. The further descriptions will thus be limited
to covering fixed connections.
LANconfig and WEBconfig feature wizards for the configuration of Internet
access or network interconnections. Further information will be provided on
