Configuring IP for the Remote Site Connection

Configuring IP for
the Remote Site
Connection
To set up connections over the WAN, a remote site profile must be
created and edited for each remote location you want to connect to.
With this profile, you specify ATM virtual circuit information, protocols,
and addresses that determine the method of connection and
communication to that remote site.
You first need to add a remote site profile, then modify the profile to
include WAN connection and network information. The following list
summarizes the necessary information:
■
Frame Relay/ATM WAN — Network Service (PPP/RFC 1483/ RFC
1490) information, ATM VC information
■
IP — IP addresses, address translation tables, static routes, RIP usage
■
IPX — IPX network address information, static routes and services, RIP
usage
■
Bridging — Enable or disable bridging to the remote site
If you need to connect to multiple remote sites (i.e., the Internet and a
remote office) you should set up a remote site profile for each location.
