Prestige 202H User’s Guide
Chapter 1
Getting to Know Your Prestige
This chapter covers the key features and main applications of your router.
1.1 Introducing the Prestige 202H
The Prestige 202H is a high-performance router that offers a complete Internet Access solution.
By integrating NAT, firewall, VPN capability and a four-port switch, the Prestige 202H is a complete
security solution that protects your Intranet and efficiently manages data traffic on your network.
The embedded web configurator is easy to operate and totally independent of your operating system
platform. You can also manage the router via the SMT (System Management Terminal), a menu-driven
interface that you can access from either a terminal emulator or telnet.
1.2 Features
This section describes the router’s key features.
IPSec VPN Capability
Establish Virtual Private Network (VPN) tunnels to connect (home) office computers to your company
network using data encryption and the Internet; thus providing secure communications without the expense
of leased site-to-site lines. The router’s VPN is based on the IPSec standard and is fully interoperable with
other IPSec-based VPN products.
Firewall
The Prestige has a stateful inspection firewall with DoS (Denial of Service) protection. By default, when the
firewall is activated, all incoming traffic from the WAN to the LAN is blocked unless it is initiated from the
LAN. The Prestige firewall supports TCP/UDP inspection, DoS detection and protection, real time alerts,
reports and logs.
4-Port Switch
A combination of switch and router makes your router a cost-effective and viable network solution. You can
connect up to four computers to the router without the cost of a hub. Use a hub to add more than four
computers to your LAN.
Getting to Know Your Prestige 1-1
Prestige 202H User’s Guide
Auto-negotiating 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN
The LAN interfaces automatically detect if they are on a 10 or a 100 Mbps Ethernet.
Auto-crossover 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN
The LAN interfaces automatically adjust to either a crossover or straight-through Ethernet cable.
Call Scheduling
Configure call time periods to restrict and allow access for users on remote nodes.
Network Address Translation (NAT)
NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) allows the translation of multiple IP addresses used
within one network to different IP addresses known within another network.
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol – Versions 1 and 2)
SNMP, a member of the TCP/IP protocol suite, allows you to exchange management information between
network devices. Your router supports SNMP agent functionality that allows a manager station to manage
and monitor the router through the network.
SNMP is only available if TCP/IP is configured on your router.
IP Alias
IP Alias allows you to partition a physical network into logical networks over the same Ethernet interface.
The Prestige supports three logical LAN interfaces via its single physical Ethernet LAN interface with the
Prestige itself as the gateway for each LAN network.
ISDN Data Link Connections
The router supports two types of ISDN Data Link Connections: point-to-multipoint and point-to-point.
ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) Support
The router supports a single BRI. A BRI offers two 64 Kbps channels, which can be used independently for
two destinations or be bundled to speed up data transfer.
Incoming Call Support
In addition to making outgoing calls, you can configure the router to act as a remote access server for
telecommuting employees.
1-2 Getting to Know Your Prestige
Prestige 202H User’s Guide
Outgoing Data Call Bumping Support
Call bumping is a feature that allows the router to manage an MP (Multilink Protocol) bundle dynamically,
dropping or reconnecting a channel in a bundle when necessary. Previously, the router did this for voice calls
only, but now with this new feature, the router can drop a channel in an MP bundle if there is a data packet to
another remote node.
CLID Callback Support For Dial-In Users
CLID is an authentication method to identify a dial-in user. CLID callback is used as an ISDN toll saving
feature because the call can be disconnected immediately without picking up the phone.
TCP/IP and PPP Support
♦ TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) network layer protocol.
♦ PPP/MP (Point-to-Point Protocol/Multilink Protocol) link layer protocol.
Dial-on-Demand
The Dial-on-Demand feature allows the router to automatically place a call to a remote gateway based on the
triggering packet’s destination without user intervention.
PPP Multilink
The router can bundle multiple links in a single connection using PPP Multilink Protocol (MP). The number
of links can be either statically configured or dynamically managed based on traffic demand.
Bandwidth-On-Demand
The router dynamically allocates bandwidth by dialing and dropping connections according to traffic
demand.
Full Network Management
♦ You can access the SMT (System Management Terminal) through a telnet connection.
♦ The embedded web configurator is an all-platform web-based utility that allows you to easily access the
Prestige’s management settings and configure the firewall.
Logging and Tracing
♦ CDR (Call Detail Record) to help analyze and manage the telephone bill.
♦ Built-in message logging and packet tracing.
♦ UNIX syslog facility support.
Getting to Know Your Prestige 1-3
Prestige 202H User’s Guide
PAP and CHAP Security
The router supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP (Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol). CHAP is more secure than PAP; however, PAP is readily available on more
platforms.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the individual client computers to obtain the TCP/IP
configuration at start-up from a centralized DHCP server. The Prestige has built-in DHCP server capability,
enabled by default, which means it can assign IP addresses, an IP default gateway and DNS servers to all
systems that support the DHCP client. The Prestige can also act as a surrogate DHCP server (DHCP Relay)
where it relays IP address assignment from another DHCP server to the clients.
Call Control
Your router provides budget management for outgoing calls and maintains a blacklist for unreachable phone
numbers in order to save you the expense of unnecessary charges.
Data Compression
Your router incorporates Stac data compression to speed up data transfer. Stac is the de facto standard of data
compression over PPP links.
Networking Compatibility
Your router is compatible with remote access products from other manufacturers such as Ascend, Cisco, and
3Com. Furthermore, it supports Microsoft Windows 95 and Windows NT remote access capability.
Upgrade Firmware via LAN
In addition to the direct console port connection, the router supports the up/downloading of firmware and
configuration file using TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) over the LAN. Even though TFTP should work
over the WAN as well, it is not recommended because of potential data corruption problems.
1.3 Internet Access With the Prestige
These sections provide example applications for your Prestige.
1.3.1 Internet Access
The Prestige is the ideal high-speed Internet access solution. Your router supports the TCP/IP protocol,
which the Internet uses exclusively. It is also compatible with access servers manufactured by major vendors
such as Cisco and Ascend. A typical Internet Access application is shown next.

Prestige 202H User’s Guide
Figure 1-1 Internet Access Application
Internet Single User Account
For a SOHO (Small Office/Home Office) environment, your router offers the NAT (Network Address
Translation) feature that allows multiple users on the LAN (Local Area Network) to access the Internet
concurrently for the cost of a single user. NAT address mapping can also be used for other LAN-to-LAN
connections.
1.3.2 LAN-to-LAN Connection
You can use the router to connect two geographically dispersed networks over the ISDN line. A typical
LAN-to-LAN application for your router is shown as follows.
Figure 1-2 LAN-to-LAN Connection Application
Getting to Know Your Prestige 1-5
Prestige 202H User’s Guide
1.3.3 Remote Access Server
Your router allows remote users to dial-in and gain access to your LAN. This feature enables individuals that
have computers with remote access capabilities to dial in to access the network resources without physically
being in the office. Either PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) or CHAP (Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol) authentication can be used to control remote access. You can also use callback for
security and/or accounting purposes.
Figure 1-3 Remote Access
1.3.4 Secure Broadband Internet Access and VPN
The Prestige provides IP address sharing and a firewall-protected local network with traffic management.
Prestige VPN is an ideal cost-effective way to connect branch offices and business partners over the Internet
without the need (and expense) of leased lines between sites. The LAN computers can use VPN tunnels for
secure connections to remote computers.

4.3 Dynamic DNS
Dynamic DNS allows you to update your current dynamic IP address with one or many dynamic DNS
services so that anyone can contact you (in NetMeeting, CU-SeeMe, etc.). You can also access your FTP
server or Web site on your own computer using a DNS-like address (for instance myhost.dhs.org, where
myhost is a name of your choice) that will never change instead of using an IP address that changes each
time you reconnect. Your friends or relatives will always be able to call you even if they don't know your IP
address.
First of all, you need to have registered a dynamic DNS account with www.dyndns.org. This is for people
with a dynamic IP from their ISP or DHCP server that would still like to have a DNS name. The Dynamic
DNS service provider will give you a password or key.
4.3.1 DYNDNS Wildcard
Enabling the wildcard feature for your host causes *.yourhost.dyndns.org to be aliased to the same IP address
as yourhost.dyndns.org. This feature is useful if you want to be able to use, for example,
www.yourhost.dyndns.org and still reach your hostname.
If you have a private WAN IP address, then you cannot use Dynamic DNS.

The Calling Line Indication, or caller ID, determines whether the other party can see your number when
you call. If set to Enable, the router sends the caller ID and the party you call can see your number; if it is
set to Disable, the caller ID is blocked.
PABX Outside Line Prefix
A PABX (Private Automatic Branch eXchange) generally requires you to dial a number (a single digit in
most cases) when you need an outside line. If your router is connected to a PABX, enter this number in
PABX Outside Line Prefix, otherwise, leave it blank.
Please note that the PABX prefix is for calls initiated by the router only. If you place a call from a device on
either A/B adapter, you must dial the prefix by hand.

5.3 NetCAPI
5.3.1 Overview
Your Prestige supports NetCAPI. NetCAPI is ZyXEL's implementation of CAPI (Common ISDN
Application Program Interface) capabilities over a network. It runs over DCP (Device Control Protocol)
developed by RVS-COM.
NetCAPI can be used for applications such as Eurofile transfer, file transfer, G3/G4 Fax, Autoanswer host
mode, telephony, etc. on Windows 95/98/NT platforms.
CAPI
CAPI is an interface standard that allows applications to access ISDN services. Several applications can
share one or more ISDN lines. When an application wants to communicate with an ISDN terminal it sends a
series of standard commands to the terminal. The CAPI standard defines the commands and allows you to
use a well-defined mechanism for communications using ISDN lines.
CAPI also simplifies the development of ISDN applications through many default values that do not need to
be programmed. It provides a unified interface for applications to access the different ISDN services such as
data, voice, fax, telephony, etc.
ISDN-DCP
ISDN-DCP allows a computer on the LAN to use services such as transmitting and receiving faxes as well as
placing and receiving phone calls.
Using ISDN-DCP, the Prestige acts as a DCP server. By default, the Prestige listens for DCP messages on
TCP port number 2578 (the Internet-assigned number for RVS-COM DCP). When the Prestige receives a
DCP message from a DCP client i.e., a computer, the Prestige processes the message and acts on it. Your
Prestige supports all the DCP messages specified in the ISDN-DCP specification.
5.3.2 Configuring the Prestige as a NetCAPI Server
This section describes how to configure your Prestige to be a NetCAPI server.
By default, NetCAPI is enabled on your Prestige.When NetCAPI is enabled, the Prestige listens for
incoming DCP messages from the computers. By default, the Prestige listens for DCP messages on TCP port
2578.

Figure 5-5 Configuration Example
Before entering any configurations, you must install the CAPI driver (RVS-CE) and communication program
such as RVS-COM Lite on your computer.
5.3.3 RVS-COM
RVS-COM includes an ISDN CAPI driver with its communication program. RVS-CE (Core Engine) is an
ISDN-CAPI 2.0 driver for Windows 95/98/NT that can be used by different ISDN communication programs
(such as AVM Fritz or RVS-COM) to access the ISDN on the Prestige.
NetCAPI can carry out CAPI applications only if the CAPI driver is installed on your computer. In addition
to the CAPI driver, you will need a communication software program such as RVS-COM Lite, Fritz etc., for
users to access CAPI.
The ISDN router is a shared device and can be used by several different client computers at the same time:
e.g. one computer sending a fax, another computer doing a file transfer. RVS-COM has to be installed on
each client computer in order to share the ISDN lines.
Example of Installing CAPI driver and Communication Software
Please uninstall previous versions of "RVS-CAPI" and "RVS-COM lite" before you
install the new versions. Click the Windows "START, Settings, Control Panel,
Add/Remove Programs" to uninstall RVS-CAPI and RVS-COM.
To install the CAPI driver and the communication software, enter one of the license keys of your RVS-COM
Lite CD-ROM and follow the instructions on the configuration wizard. When you install RVS-Lite, RVSCOM AUTOMATICALLY installs CAPI driver before installing RVS-Lite.
If you did not install RVS-Lite and want to use other programs such as AVM Fritz to
access the ISDN router, you must first install the CAPI driver - RVS-CE using the
5-6 ISDN Setup
Prestige 202H User’s Guide
If you did not install RVS-Lite and want to use other programs such as AVM Fritz to
access the ISDN router, you must first install the CAPI driver - RVS-CE using the
English version installation wizard (in \DISKs\CEPE\DISK1\) and start the

6.2 Ethernet TCP/IP and DHCP Server
The Prestige has built-in DHCP server capability that assigns IP addresses and DNS servers to systems that
support DHCP client capability. For remote node TCP/IP configuration, refer to the chapter on Remote Node
Configuration.
6.2.1 Factory Ethernet Defaults
The Ethernet parameters of the router are preset in the factory with the following values:
1. IP address of 192.168.1.1 with subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (24 bits).
2. DHCP server enabled with 32 client IP addresses starting from 192.168.1.33.
These parameters should work for the majority of installations. If the parameters are satisfactory, you can
skip to section 6.3 to enter the DNS server address(es) if your ISP gives you explicit DNS server address(es).
6.2.2 IP Address and Subnet Mask
Similar to the way houses on a street share a common street name, so too do computers on a LAN share one
common network number.
Where you obtain your network number depends on your particular situation. If the ISP or your network
administrator assigns you a block of registered IP addresses, follow their instructions in selecting the IP
addresses and the subnet mask.
If the ISP did not explicitly give you an IP network number, then most likely you have a single user account
and the ISP will assign you a dynamic IP address when the connection is established. If this is the case, it is
recommended that you select a network number from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.0 and you must enable the
Network Address Translation (NAT) feature of the Prestige. The Internet Assigned Number Authority
(IANA) reserved this block of addresses specifically for private use; please do not use any other number
unless you are told otherwise. Let's say you select 192.168.1.0 as the network number; which covers 254
individual addresses, from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254 (zero and 255 are reserved). In other words, the first
three numbers specify the network number while the last number identifies an individual computer on that
network.
Once you have decided on the network number, pick an IP address that is easy to remember, for instance,
192.168.1.1, for your Prestige, but make sure that no other device on your network is using that IP address.
The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. Your Prestige will compute the
subnet mask automatically based on the IP address that you entered. You don't need to change the subnet
mask computed by the Prestige unless you are instructed to do otherwise.
6-2 Ethernet Setup
Prestige 202H User’s Guide
6.2.3 Private IP Addresses
Every computer on the Internet must have a unique IP address. If your networks are isolated from the
Internet, for instance, only between your two branch offices, you can assign any IP addresses to the hosts
without problems. However, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has reserved the following
three blocks of IP addresses specifically for private networks.
Table 6-1 Private IP Address Ranges
10.0.0.0 -10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 -172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 -192.168.255.255
You can obtain your IP address from the IANA, from an ISP or have it assigned by a private network. If you
belong to a small organization and your Internet access is through an ISP, the ISP can provide you with the
Internet addresses for your local networks. On the other hand, if you are part of a much larger organization,
you should consult your network administrator for the appropriate IP addresses.
Regardless of your particular situation, do not create an arbitrary IP address;
always follow the guidelines above. For more information on address assignment,
please refer to RFC 1597, Address Allocation for Private Internets and RFC 1466,
Guidelines for Management of IP Address Space.
6.2.4 RIP Setup
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows a router to exchange routing information with other routers. The
RIP Direction field controls the sending and receiving of RIP packets. When set to Both, the router will
broadcast its routing table periodically and incorporate the RIP information that it receives; when set to
None, it will not send any RIP packets and will ignore any RIP packets received.
The Version field controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that the router sends
(it recognizes both formats when receiving). RIP-1 is universally supported; but RIP-2 carries more
information. RIP-1 is probably adequate for most networks, unless you have an unusual network topology.
Both RIP-2B and RIP-2M sends the routing data in RIP-2 format; the difference being that RIP-2B uses
subnet broadcasting while RIP-2M uses multicasting. Multicasting can reduce the load on non-router
machines since they generally do not listen to the RIP multicast address and so will not receive the RIP
packets. However, if one router uses multicasting, then all routers on your network must use multicasting
also.
By default, RIP direction is set to Both and the Version set to RIP-1.
Ethernet Setup 6-3
Prestige 202H User’s Guide
6.2.5 DHCP Configuration
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the individual clients (computers) to obtain the
TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a centralized DHCP server. The router has built-in DHCP server
capability, enabled by default, which means it can assign IP addresses, an IP default gateway and DNS
servers to Windows® 95, Windows® NT and other systems that support the DHCP client. The router can
also act as a surrogate DHCP server where it relays IP address assignment from the actual DHCP server to
the clients.
IP Pool Setup
The router is pre-configured with a pool of 32 IP addresses starting from 192.168.1.33 to 192.168.1.64 for
the client machines. This leaves 31 IP addresses, 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.32 (excluding the router itself
which has a default IP of 192.168.1.1) for other server machines, e.g., server for mail, FTP, telnet, web, etc.,
that you may have.
DNS Server Address
DNS (Domain Name System) maps a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice versa, e.g., the
IP address of www.zyxel.com is 204.217.0.2. The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you
must know the IP address of a computer before you can access it.
There are two ways that an ISP disseminates the DNS server addresses. The first is for an ISP to tell a
customer the DNS server addresses, usually in the form of an information sheet, when s/he signs up. If your
ISP does give you the DNS server addresses, enter them in the DNS Server fields in DHCP Setup. The
second is to leave this field blank, i.e., 0.0.0.0 – in this case the router acts as a DNS proxy.
Some ISP’s choose to pass the DNS servers using the DNS server extensions of PPP IPCP (IP Control
Protocol) after the connection is up. If your ISP did not give you explicit DNS servers, chances are the DNS
servers are conveyed through IPCP negotiation. The router supports the IPCP DNS server extensions through
the DNS proxy feature.
If the Primary and Secondary DNS Server fields in DHCP Setup are not specified, i.e., left as 0.0.0.0, the
router tells the DHCP clients that it by itself is the DNS server. When a computer sends a DNS query to the
router, the router forwards the query to the real DNS server learned through IPCP and relays the response
back to the computer.
Please note that DNS proxy works only when the ISP uses the IPCP DNS server extensions. It does not mean
you can leave the DNS servers out of the DHCP setup under all circumstances. If your ISP gives you explicit
DNS servers, make sure that you enter their IP addresses in the DHCP Setup menu. This way, the router can
pass the DNS servers to the computers and the computers can query the DNS server directly without the
router’s intervention.

Chapter 8
Remote Node Configuration
This chapter covers the configuration of remote nodes.
8.1 Remote Node Overview
A remote node is required for placing calls to a remote gateway. A remote node represents both the remote
gateway and the network behind it across a WAN connection. Note that when you use Menu 4 to set up
Internet access, you are actually configuring one of the remote nodes. Once a remote node is configured
correctly, traffic to the remote network will trigger your Prestige to make a call automatically, i.e., Dial on
Demand.
8.1.1 Minimum Toll Period
Phone calls are normally charged per basic time unit with the time being rounded up to the nearest unit when
bills are calculated. For example, the Prestige may make a call but drop the call after 10 seconds (maybe
there was no reply) but the call would still be charged at a minimum time unit, let us say 3 minutes. With
minimum toll period, the Prestige will try to use all the toll period. In the above case, the Prestige tries to
extend the idle timeout to the nearest 3 minutes (basic charging unit of time). If there is traffic during the
extended 2 minutes and 50 seconds, the idle timeout will be cleared and a second call is eliminated. Since the
session time calculation by the Prestige is not always perfectly synchronized with your telephone company,
the Prestige drops the channel 5 seconds before the toll period you set, to compensate for any lag. As such,
you must not set the minimum toll period to less than 5 seconds.

8.3 Outgoing Authentication Protocol
Generally speaking, you should employ the strongest authentication protocol possible, for obvious reasons.
However, some vendor’s implementation includes specific authentication protocol in the user profile. It will
disconnect if the negotiated protocol is different from that in the user profile, even when the negotiated
protocol is stronger than specified. If you encounter the case where the peer disconnects right after a
successful authentication, please make sure that you specify the correct authentication protocol when
connecting to such an implementation.
8.4 PPP Multilink
The Prestige uses the PPP Multilink Protocol (PPP/MP) to bundle multiple links in a single connection to
boost the effective throughput between two nodes.
Due to the fragmentation/reconstruction overhead associated with MP, you may not get a linear increase in
throughput when a link is added.
The number of links in an MP bundle can be statically configured, or dynamically determined at runtime, as
explained in the following section.
8.5 Bandwidth on Demand
The Bandwidth on Demand (BOD) feature adds or subtracts links dynamically according to traffic demand.
After the initial call, the Prestige uses BAP (Bandwidth Allocation Protocol) to ask the peer for additional
telephone number if BACP (Bandwidth Allocation Control Protocol) is negotiated. Otherwise, the Prestige
uses the statically configured (primary and secondary) telephone numbers of the remote node.
The configuration of bandwidth on demand focuses on the Base Transmission Rate (BTR) and the Maximum
Transmission Rate (MTR). The relationship between BTR and MTR are shown in the following table:
8-6 Remote Node Configuration
Table 8-2 BTR vs MTR for BOD
Prestige 202H User’s Guide
BTR AND MTR SETTING No. of Channel(s)

BTR = 128, MTR = 128 2 2 Off
Max No. of
Channel(s) Used
2
BANDWIDTH ON
DEMAND
On
When bandwidth on demand is enabled, a second channel will be brought up if traffic on the initial channel is
higher than the high Target Utility number for longer than the specified Add Persist value. Similarly, the
second channel will be dropped if the traffic level falls below the low Target Utility number for longer than
the Subtract Persist value.
The Target Utility specifies the line utilization range at which you want the Prestige to add or subtract
bandwidth. The range is 30 to 64 Kbps (kilobits per second). The parameters are separated by a ‘–’. For
example, ‘30–60’ means the add threshold is 30 Kbps and subtract threshold is 60 Kbps. The Prestige
performs bandwidth on demand only if it initiates the call. Addition and subtraction are based on the value
set in the BOD Calculation field. If this field is set to Transmit or Receive, then traffic in either direction
will be included to determine if a link should be added or dropped. Transmit will only use outgoing traffic
to make this determination and Receive will only use incoming traffic to make this determination.
If, after making the call to bring up a second channel, the second channel does not succeed in joining the
Multilink Protocol bundle (because the remote device does not recognize the second call as coming from the
same device), the Prestige will hang up the second call and continue with the first channel alone.

cost, with a minimum of 1 for directly connected networks.
Enter a number that approximates the cost for this link. The
number need not be precise, but it must be between 1 and 15.
In practice, 2 or 3 is usually a good number.
Private This parameter determines if the Prestige will include the route
to this remote node in its RIP broadcasts. If set to Yes, this

8.9 Configuring Filter
Use Menu 11.5 – Remote Node Filter to specify the filter set(s) to apply to the incoming and outgoing

You can specify up to 4 filter sets separated by comma, e.g., 1, 5, 9, 12, in each filter field. The default is no
filters.
Note that spaces are accepted in this field. The Prestige comes with a prepackaged filter set, NetBIOS_WAN,
that blocks NetBIOS packets (call protocol filter = 1). You can include this in the call filter sets if you wish
to prevent NetBIOS packets from triggering calls to a remote node.
To specify remote node filters, move the cursor to the Edit Filter Sets field in Menu 11.1 – Remote Node
Profile, and use [SPACE BAR] to select Yes. Press [ENTER] to open Menu 11.5, as shown next.
Static routes tell the Prestige routing information that it cannot learn automatically through other means. This
can arise in cases where RIP is disabled on the LAN or a remote network is beyond the one that is directly
connected to a remote node.
Each remote node specifies only the network to which the gateway is directly connected and the Prestige has
no knowledge of the networks beyond. For instance, the Prestige knows about network N2 in the following
diagram through remote node Router 1. However, the Prestige is unable to route a packet to network N3
because it does not know that there is a route through remote node Router 2. The static routes are for you to
tell the Prestige about the networks beyond the remote nodes.

Dial-in Setup
This chapter shows you how to configure your Prestige to receive calls from remote dial-in users
including telecommuters and remote nodes. This is done in SMT menus 13 and 14.
10.1 Dial-in Users Overview
There are several differences between dial-in users and remote nodes, as summarized in the next table.
Your Prestige will only answer calls from remote
dial-in users; it will not make calls to them.
All remote dial-in users share one common set of
parameters, as defined in the Menu 14 Default Dial-in User Setup.
Your Prestige can make calls to and receive calls
from the remote node.
Each remote node can have its own set of
parameters such as Bandwidth On Demand,
Protocol, Security, etc.
10.2 Default Dial-in User Setup
This section covers the default dial-in parameters. The parameters in menu 13 affect incoming calls from
both remote dial-in users and remote nodes until authentication is completed. Once authentication is
completed and if it matches a remote node, your Prestige will use the parameters from that particular remote
node.
10.2.1 CLID Callback Support For Dial-In Users
CLID (Calling Line IDentification) authentication affords you the security of limiting a user to only initiate
connections from a fixed location. The Prestige uses the caller ID sent by the switch to match against the
CLIDs in the database. Please note that for CLID authentication to work on the Prestige, your telephone
company must support caller ID. If the remote node requires mutual authentication, please fill in the O/G Username and O/G Password fields. You must also fill in these fields when a dial-in user to whom we are
calling back requests authentication.

field even if Dial-in User is set to Yes, in which case your
Prestige will accept the IP address if the remote peer specifies
one; otherwise, an IP address is assigned from the pool.
This field is applicable only if you selected Yes in the Dial-In IP
Address Supplied By: IP Pool field.
The IP pool contains contiguous IP addresses and this field
specifies the first one in the pool. The IP start address is the start
of a series of consecutive IP addresses.
In this field, enter the number (1 or 2) of addresses in the IP
Pool. For example, if the starting address is 192.168.135.5 and
the count is 2, then the pool will have 192.68.135.5 and
192.68.135.6. The IP count is the number of consecutive IP
addresses allowed.
Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select Yes to edit the
filter sets. Keep in mind that the filter set(s) will only apply to
remote dial-in users but not the remote nodes.

but not the remote nodes. You can specify up to 4 filter sets separated by comma, e.g., 1, 5, 9, 12, in each
filter field. The default is no filters.
Spaces are accepted in this field. For more information on defining the filters, see the filters chapter.
Callback serves two purposes. One is security. When set to callback to a fixed number, an intruder will not
gain access to your network even if he/she stole the password from your user, because the Prestige always
calls back to the pre-configured number.
The other is ease of accounting. For instance, your company pays for the connection charges for
telecommuting employees and you use your Prestige as the dial-in server. When you turn on the callback
option for the dial-in users, all usage is charged to the company instead of the employees, and your
accounting department can avoid the hassles of accountability and reimbursement.

This option allows the user to specify the call back telephone number on a
call-by-call basis. This is useful when your Prestige returns a call back to a
mobile user at different numbers, e.g., a sales rep. in a hotel.
If the setting is Yes, the user can specify and send to the Prestige the
callback number of his/her choice.
The default is No, i.e., your Prestige always calls back to the fixed callback
number.
If Phone # Supplied by Caller is No, then this is a required field. Otherwise,
a N/A will appear in the field. Enter the telephone number to which your
Prestige will call back.
If you enable CLID Authen field in Menu 13, then you need to specify the
telephone number from which this user calls. Your Prestige will check the
CLID in the incoming call against the CLIDs in the database. If they do not
match and CLID Authen is Required, your Prestige will not answer the call.
Enter the idle time (in seconds). This time-out determines how long the dial-in
user can be idle before your Prestige disconnects the call when the Prestige
is calling back.
Idle time is defined as the period of time where there is no data traffic
between the dial-in user and your Prestige. The default is 100 seconds.

10.6 Telecommuting Application With Windows Example
Telecommuting enables people to work at remote sites and yet still have access to the resources in the
business office. Typically, a telecommuter will use a client workstation with TCP/IP and dial-out capabilities,
e.g., a Windows® PC or a Macintosh. For telecommuters to call in to your Prestige, you need to configure a
