To enable your gateway to set up connections to networks or hosts outside your
LAN, you must configure the partners you want to connect to as so-called WAN
partners on your gateway. This applies to outgoing connections (e.g. your gate
way dials its WAN partner), as well as incoming connections (e.g. a WAN partner dials the number of your gateway) and leased lines.
If you want to access the Internet, you must set up your Internet Service Provider (➤➤ISP) as a WAN partner. If you want to connect your LAN to a remote
LAN, e.g. your LAN (head office) and the LAN of a branch office (corporate network connection), you must configure the remote LAN as a WAN partner.
If you have configured a leased line during configuration of your gateway’s
ISDN S0 interface, a WAN partner is already configured automatically in the
WAN PARTNER menu. Edit this entry to suit your requirements.

the
CallbackThe callback mechanism can be used for each WAN partner to obtain additional
security regarding the connection partner or to clearly allocate the costs of connections. A connection is not set up until the calling party has been clearly identified by calling back. The gateway can answer an incoming call with a callback
or wait for a callback of a WAN partner.
Identification can be based on the calling party number or PAP/CHAP/MSCHAP authentication. Identification is made in the first case without call accep
tance, as the calling party number is transferred over the ISDN D-channel, and
in the second case with call acceptance.
Defining short hold➤➤ Short hold is defined to clear an unused connection automatically, i.e.
when no more user data is sent, and thus save charges. The short hold setting
can be either static or dynamic and tells the gateway the duration of the idle
time, after which it is to clear down the connection.

Static
The static short hold setting determines how much time should pass between
sending the last
fixed period of time in seconds.
Dynamic (only with ISDN)
With the dynamic short hold setting, no fixed period of time is specified and the
length of an ISDN charging unit is considered instead. Dynamic short hold is
based on AOCD (advice of charge during the call), which depends on time,
weekend/weekday.
When setting dynamic short hold, you specify how much percent of an interval
of charge may be reached after the last user data has been sent before the connection is cleared. If you enter 50 %, for example, the IDLEFOR DYNAMIC SHORT

BAP, Dialup Client Mode
and
BAP Dialup Server Mode
(For dialup connections only)
An ISP can fulfill the channel-bundling function,
even if it distributes incoming calls to several
gateways: an ISDN number is transmitted to
the client who dials in. This number is assigned
individually to each gateway on the central
side, so that the calls on several channels to
this number are always terminated on the same
gateway. Adding the second B-channel is car
ried out via a kind of callback: the client
requests a further B-channel. The central side
then requests the individual number of the
gateway to which the client has already been
connected.
In this scenario the client takes the active part,
i.e. he controls and has the responsibility (costs
for channel-bundling). The central side accepts
all requests of the client as long as they match
the WAN partner configuration on the gateway.

To be able to transfer IP datagrams between two remote LANs, the gateway
must know the route to the respective destination network. In this menu you can
define the basic routing or generate a default route to the partner gateway.
Default routeAll data is sent automatically to the WAN partner on a default route, if no other
route matches.
Setting up an Internet connection, you should configure the route to your Internet Service Provider (ISP) as a default route.
If you configure e.g. a corporate network connection, only enter the route to the
head office as a default route if you do not configure Internet access over your
gateway.
If you configure both Internet access and a corporate network connection, enter
a default route to the ISP and a network route to the head office.
You can configure several default routes on your gateway, but only one can be
active. Make sure that you set different values for METRIC, if you configure more
than one default route.
Transit networkYou use an additional ISDN IP address each for your gatewayand the WAN
partner. This sets up a virtual IP network – called a transit network – during the
connection. You do not normally need this setting, but it is necessary for some
special configurations.
