Specifying DIALUP
Description
The DIALUP characteristic is used to notify LAT service nodes that a port user
connected to the service through a dial-in modem. The service node can use this
information to implement system security. With DIALUP enabled, the access server
sends DIALUP notification to service nodes. With DIALUP disabled (the default), the
access server does not notify the service nodes. If you do not enable DIALUP, the
service node could treat the user’s service sessions as local connections at the service
node itself. Ask the network manager and the service node system manager if they
require this notification when there are dial-in modems at access server ports. The
DIALUP characteristic is not used for resources on the TCP/IP network.
