Node Name
is displayed at the upper right of the screen when the device is being controlled by the
"local" keyboard and monitor. (If the local operator is controlling a remote Cabletron
frame relay access device, the
Remote Control ID
of that device will be displayed as the
local
Node Name
.)
Remote Control ID
is required if a remote Cabletron frame relay access device or async terminal will be
used to take control of the local SmartSwitch 1800 (via a physical or logical port in
the local device). The ID will be checked against the called address fields of incoming
Call Requests. The remote device can be a terminal connected to an async PAD port
on a remote Cabletron frame relay access device, or the remote device itself.
