D-Link DI-1162 Network Router User Manual


 
DI-1162/DI-1162M Remote Access Router
2
Two high-speed serial (async/sync) ports for two additional WAN connections.
A BRI ISDN module (S/T interface only).
These modules allow you to expand the functionality of the DI-1162/DI-1162M to fulfill all your internetworking
needs.
Dial on Demand
The Dial-On-Demand feature allows the DI-1162/DI-1162M to automatically place a call to a remote node, via a
WAN, whenever there is traffic coming from any workstation on the LAN to that remote site.
Full Network Management
The DI-1162/DI-1162M incorporates SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) agents and a menu-driven
Network Management System accessible via an RS-232 (console) or Telnet connection.
Security
The DI-1162/DI-1162M supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol), CHAP (Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol), Layer 2 and IP Filtering, and the creation of firewalls.
RIP-1/ RIP-2 Routing Protocols
The DI-1162/DI-1162M supports both RIP-1 and RIP-2 (Routing Information Protocol versions 1 and 2)
exchanges with adjacent routers. These exchanges allow the DI-1162/DI-1162M to send and/or receive routing
tables to adjacent routers in order to streamline WAN communications.
DHCP Support
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the DI-1162/DI-1162M router to automatically assign IP
addresses to computers as they enter the network. This feature frees the network administrator from assigning and
managing IP addresses for each individual machine on the LAN.
Data Compression
The DI-1162/DI-1162M incorporates the hardware-based Stac LZS Data Compression for CCP (Compression
Control Protocol).
Network Address Translation (NAT/NAPT)
This feature allows multiple users on the LAN to access the Internet (through an Internet Service Provider)
concurrently through a single IP address. This is especially useful for corporate office environments, where a large
number of users need access to the internet, but only a few internet addresses are available.
