Select an entry from above and hit <Enter>. This screen will be blank if a remote network profile has not been
configured yet.
The parameters in the above window are described as follows:
Remote Name
– Name for the remote network that the DI-1162/DI-1162M is being set up to connect with.
Direction –
Dial-[
In
], dial-[
Out
], or [
Both
]. This field defines whether the router on the other network will
dial-[
In
] to the DI-1162/DI-1162M to establish a connection, the router will dial-[
Out
] to the other network, or
a connection can be established [
Both
] ways.
When this is set to
In
, the DI-1162/DI-1162M will only establish a connection with the other network by
receiving calls on the WAN port specified in the Interface
field below. Also, the incoming calls will be subject
to the Name, Password, and Rem CLID fields in the Incoming
section below.
When this is set to
Out
, the router will only make calls on the WAN interface specified in the Interface field
below. Also, the outgoing calls will be subject to the Name, Password and Phone Number
fields in the
Outgoing section below.
When set to
Both
, the dial in
and dial out
conditions described above will both be observed.
Interface
WAN1
or
WAN2
. This field is used to assign a remote network to a logical (virtual) interface called
a virtual circuit. More than one remote network can be configured to use the same interface, but they cannot be
connected at the same time. Thus, if you wish to have two WAN connections operate simultaneously, make
sure they are configured on different interfaces. On the other hand, if you have two dial-out remote network
profiles but wish to keep one line always open for dial-in users, make sure the two dial-out profiles use the
same interface. In this case, the two profiles will share the same interface; the second one using it after the first
one’s idle time has expired and it has relinquished it.
Backup Intf
– Enter a backup interface in this field is desired.
Phone -
This is the telephone number that will be dialed to make the outgoing connection.
Idle Time –
This is the elapsed time (in seconds), of inactivity, that will trigger the router to disconnect this
interface.
Script File ID
– This is the ID in the
Script File Configuration
menu.
