Ease of Installation
Your SpeedTouch 210i is a self-contained unit that is quick and easy to install. Physically,
it resembles an external modem; however, it is a combination ISDN router and Ethernet
switch, and it uses twisted-pair Ethernet cables to connect to the host network.
Built-in Switch
A dual-speed NWay switch, the SpeedTouch 210i provides four ports for connecting
network end nodes—single-user computers, servers, bridges, other routers, etc.—through
standard “straight-through” twisted-pair cables and one port for making an “uplink”
connection to another hub or switch through the same type of straight-through cable used
to connect end nodes.
ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI)
Using a standard S/T the SpeedTouch 210i supports DSS1 ISDN switches. The two
ISDN B-channels can be used independently for two destinations, or they can be bundled
together for one high-bandwidth connection supporting bandwidth-on-demand.
Dial On Demand
The Dial On Demand feature allows a SpeedTouch 210i to automatically place a call to a
Remote Node whenever there is traffic coming from any workstation on the LAN (Local
Area Network) to that remote site.
Bandwidth On Demand
Bandwidth-on-Demand (BOD) for ISDN Interface: As the ISDN BRI interface has two
independent B channels, the BOD mechanism allows you to automatically add/drop a B
channel according to data traffic throughput.
Full Network Management
The SpeedTouch 210i incorporates SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)
support and menu-driven network management via a Telnet connection or an embedded
Web configuration program.
PPP Security
The SpeedTouch 210i supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP
(Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol).
RIP-1/RIP-2
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) Support: Used in most LAN-to-LAN applications.
The RIP protocol exchanges routing information between routers.
