Preface

About Your Prestige
Congratulations on your purchase of the Prestige ISDN Router. Don’t forget to register your Prestige (fast, easy online registration at www.zyxel.com) for free future product updates and information.
The Prestige 100IH is a high-performance routers that offer complete solutions for your WAN (Wide Area Network) applications such as Internet access, LAN-to-LAN connections, telecommuting and remote access over ISDN (Integrated Service Digital Network).
You do not need to set any switches to configure the Prestige. The user-friendly Prestige Web Configurator (PWC) is a JAVA based utility that allows you to manage the Prestige via a Worldwide Web browser. You can also manage the Prestige via the SMT (System Management Terminal), a menu-driven interface that you can access from either a terminal emulator or telnet.

2. When the telephone company installs your ISDN line, please be sure to obtain and write down the following information for future use:
a. ISDN switch type
b. ISDN telephone number(s)
Supplemental services such as Call Forwarding are supported by the Prestige but must be subscribed to separately from the telephone company.
Ethernet Setup Information
IP Address -
in dotted decimal notation (four 8-bit numbers, between 0 and 255, separated by periods), e.g., 192.168.1.1.
Please note that every machine on a network must have a unique IP address - do not assign an arbitrary address to any machine. If you are not sure as to which IP address to assign to the Prestige, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or refer to Chapter 3 of this guide for more details.
IP Subnet Mask -
Mask is used to specify the network ID portion of the address, expressed in dotted decimal notation. The Prestige automatically calculates this mask based on the IP address that you assign. Unless you have a special need for subnetting, use the default mask as calculated by the Prestige.
Preface xv
The IP Address is the unique 32-bit number assigned to your Prestige. This address is written
An IP address consists of two parts, the network ID and the host ID. The IP Subnet

NAT(Network Address Translation)
ZyXEL’s SUA (Single User Account) has now been replaced by the all new NAT support. NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) is the translation of an Internet Protocol address used within one network to a different IP address known within another network. NAT supports five types of IP/port mapping. They are:
1. One to One: In One-to-One mode, the Prestige maps one local IP address to one global IP address.
2. Many to One: In Many-to-One mode, the Prestige maps multiple local IP addresses to one global
IP address. This is equivalent to SUA (i.e., PAT, port address translation), ZyXEL’s Single User Account feature that previous ZyXEL routers supported (the SUA Only option in today’s routers).
3. Many to Many Overload: In Many-to-Many Overload mode, the Prestige maps the multiple local
IP addresses to shared global IP addresses.
4. Many to Many No Overload: In Many-to-Many No Overload mode, the Prestige maps the each
local IP addresses to unique global IP addresses.
5. Server: This type allows us to specify multiple inside servers of different types behind the NAT.
ZyXEL is also proud to announce that NetMeeting is supported for both incoming and outgoing calls. For outgoing calls, there is no special configuration needed but for incoming calls, set the NetMeeting server to ports 1503 and 1720.
ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) Support
The Prestige 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.

Page 20
P100IH ISDN Router
Extensive Analog Phone Support
The Prestige is equipped with two standard phone jacks for you to connect analog devices such as telephones and FAX machines. It also supports supplementary services such as call waiting and 3-way calling.
Incoming Call Support
In addition to making outgoing calls, the Prestige allows you to configure it as a remote access server for telecommuting employees.
Outgoing Data Call Bumping Support
Call bumping is a feature that allows the Prestige to manage an MP bundle dynamically, dropping or reconnecting a channel in a bundle when necessary. Previously, the Prestige did this for voice calls only, but now with this new feature, the Prestige can drop a channel in an MP bundle if there is a data packet to another remote node. No SMT Menu changes are necessary for this new feature.
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.
Integrated 4-Port Ethernet Hub
The Prestige 100IH is equipped with a built-in 4-port Ethernet 10Base-T hub. The built-in hub eliminates the need to purchase a separate hub when building a one to four-port network. For a larger number of workstations, additional hubs can be daisy-chained to the Prestige.
Dial-On-Demand
The Dial-On-Demand feature allows the Prestige to automatically place a call to a remote gateway based on the triggering packet’s destination without user intervention.
PPP Multilink
The Prestige 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 Prestige dynamically allocates bandwidth by dialing and dropping connections according to traffic demand.

PAP and CHAP Security
The Prestige 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 Support
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the individual clients (workstations) 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 Windows 9X, Windows NT and other systems that support the DHCP client. The Prestige can now also act as a surrogate DHCP server (DHCP Relay) where it relays IP address assignment from the actual real DHCP server to the clients.
Call Control
Your Prestige 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 Prestige incorporates Stac data compression to speed up data transfer. Stac is the de facto standard of data compression over PPP links.
Networking Compatibility
Your Prestige 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.
Prestige Network Commander (PNC)
The PNC is a Windows based utility designed to allow users to access the Prestige’s management settings via a Worldwide Web browser.

P100IH ISDN Router
Internet Single User Account
For a SOHO (small office/Home Office) environment, your Prestige 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.
1.2.2 LAN-to-LAN Connection
You can use the Prestige to connect two geographically dispersed networks over the ISDN line. A typical LAN-to-LAN application for your Prestige is shown next.
Figure 1-2 LAN-to-LAN Connection Application
1.2.3 Remote Access Server
Your Prestige allows remote users to dial-in and gain access to your LAN. This feature enables users that have workstations with remote access capabilities, e.g., Windows 95, 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 the access from the remote users. You can also use callback for security and/or accounting purposes.

2.7 Filename conventions
The configuration file (sometimes called the romfile or romfile-0) contains the settings in the menus such as password, DHCP Setup defaults, TCP/IP Setup defaults etc. The external (i.e., not on the Prestige) configuration filename is usually the router model name with a *.rom extension, e.g., P100IH.rom. The
Hardware Installation and Setup 2-7
Page 32
P100IH ISDN Router
ZyNOS firmware file (sometimes referred to as the “ras” file) is the file that contains the ZyXEL Network Operating System firmware and the external firmware file is usually called the router model name with a *.bin extension, e.g., P100IH.bin. Rename the configuration filename to “rom-0” and the firmware filename to “ras” when transferring files to the Prestige (i.e., the internal filenames on the Prestige). Renaming the files is not necessary when you transfer files to the Prestige using the X-Modem protocol.
2.7.1 Resetting the Prestige
If you have forgotten your password or for some reason cannot access the SMT menu you will need to reinstall the configuration file. Uploading the configuration file replaces the current configuration file with the default configuration file, you will lose all configurations that you had before and the speed of the console port will be reset to the default of 9600bps with 8 data bit, no parity and 1 stop bit (8n1). The password will be reset to the default of 1234, also.
Turn off the Prestige and begin a Telnet session with the default console port settings. Turn on the Prestige again. When you see the message "Press Any key to enter Debug Mode within 3 seconds", press any key to enter debug mode. You should already have downloaded the correct file from your nearest ZyXEL FTP site.

Depending on your location, you may have Multiple Subscriber Number (MSN) where the telephone company gives you more than one number for your ISDN line. You can assign each number to a different port, e.g., the first number to data calls, the second to A/B adapter 1 and so on. Or (DSS1) the telephone company may give you only one number, but allow you to assign your own subaddresses to different ports, e.g., subaddress 1 to data calls and 2 to A/B adapter 1.

Similar to the houses on a street that share a common street name, the machines on a LAN share one common network number, also.
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 (ignoring the trailing zero) and you must enable the Single User Account feature of the Prestige. The Internet Assigned Number Authority (IANA) reserved this block of addresses specifically for private use; please do 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 3 numbers specify the network number while the last number identifies an individual workstation on that network.
Once you have decided on the network number, pick an IP address that is easy to remember, e.g.,
192.168.1.1, for your Prestige.

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.
3.2.2 Private IP Addresses
Every machine on the Internet must have a unique address. If your networks are isolated from the Internet, e.g., 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:
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255
For this reason, it is recommended that you choose your network number from the above list.
You can obtain your IP address from the IANA, from an ISP, or assigned from 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.
Note:
guidelines above. For more information on address assignment, please refer to RFC 1597,
for Private Internets
Regardless of your particular situation, do not create an arbitrary IP address; always follow the
Address Allocation

Guidelines for Management of IP Address Space.

3.2.4 DHCP Configuration
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the individual clients (workstations) 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 Windows 95, Windows NT and other systems that support the DHCP client. The Prestige 100IH can now also act as a surrogate DHCP server (DHCP Relay) where it relays IP address assignment from the actual real DHCP server to the clients. DHCP relay is a middle role between the server and the client. Whenever a DHCP client requests an IP address, the “DHCP relay” relays requests and responses between the DHCP server and DHCP client, so it looks to the client that the Prestige is the actual DHCP server.
IP Pool Setup
The Prestige 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 Prestige 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) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice versa, e.g., the IP address of without it, you must know the IP address of a machine before you can access it. The DNS server addresses that you enter in the DHCP setup are passed to the client machines along with the assigned IP address and subnet mask.
www.zyxel.com
is 204.217.0.2. The DNS server is extremely important because
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 you sign up. If your ISP does give you the DNS server addresses, enter them in the
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 Prestige supports the IPCP DNS server extensions through the DNS proxy feature.
If the
Primary
Prestige tells the DHCP clients that it itself is the DNS server. When a workstation sends a DNS query to the Prestige, the Prestige forwards the query to the real DNS server learned through IPCP and relays the response back to the workstation.
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 Prestige can pass the DNS servers to the workstations and the workstations can query the DNS server directly without the Prestige’s intervention.

Chapter 4:
NAT
4.1 Introduction
NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) is the translation of an Internet Protocol address used within one network to a different IP address known within another network. One network is designated the
network and the other is the
inside
one or more global outside IP addresses and “unmaps” the global IP addresses on incoming packets back into local IP addresses. The IP addresses for the NAT can be either fixed or dynamically assigned by the ISP. In addition, you can designate servers, e.g., a web server and a telnet server, on your local network and make them accessible to the outside world. If you do not define any servers (for Many-to-One and Many-to-Many Overload mapping – see below), NAT offers the additional benefit of firewall protection. If no server is defined in these cases, all incoming inquiries will be filtered out by your Prestige, thus preventing intruders from probing your network. For more information on IP address translation, refer to RFC 1631,
Network Address Translator (NAT).
4.1.1 Advantages of NAT
NAT is a cost-effective solution to access the Internet or other remote TCP/IP networks as NAT
z
conserves on the number of global IP addresses that a company needs in its communication with the outside world.
NAT supports popular Internet applications such as MS traceroute, CuSeeMe, IRC, RealAudio,
z
VDOLive, Quake and PPTP with no extra configuration needed.
NAT supports servers, including multiple servers of the same type, to be accessible to the outside
z
world.
. Typically, a company maps its local inside network addresses to
outside
The IP
NAT can provide firewall protection if you do not specify a server (for Many-to-One and Many-to-
z
Many Overload mapping) and all incoming inquiries will be filtered out by your Prestige.
UDP and TCP packets can be routed. In addition, partial ICMP, including echo and traceroute, is
z
supported.
4.1.2 How NAT works
Each packet consists of two addresses – a source address and a destination address. For outgoing packets, the ILA is the source address on the LAN, and the IGA is the source address on the WAN. For incoming packets, the ILA is the destination address on the LAN, and the IGA is the destination address on the WAN. The term “Inside” refers to the set of networks that are subject to translation. Network Address Translation operates by mapping private (local) IP addresses to globally unique ones required for communication with hosts on other networks. It replaces the original IP source address (and TCP or UDP source port numbers for Many-to-One
NAT 4-1
Page 50
P100IH ISDN Router
and Many-to-Many Overload NAT mapping) and then forwards each packet to the Internet ISP, thus making them appear as if they had come from the NAT system itself (e.g., the Prestige). The Prestige keeps track of the original addresses and port numbers so incoming reply packets can have their original values restored. The following diagram illustrates this.
Figure 4-1 How NAT Works
4.1.3 NAT Mapping Types
NAT supports five types of IP/port mapping. They are:
1. One to One: In One-to-One mode, the Prestige maps one local IP address to one global IP address.
2. Many to One: In Many-to-One mode, the Prestige maps multiple local IP addresses to one global IP
address. This is equivalent to SUA (i.e., PAT, port address translation), ZyXEL’s Single User Account feature that previous ZyXEL routers supported (the SUA Only option in today’s routers).
3. Many to Many Overload: In Many-to-Many Overload mode, the Prestige maps the multiple local IP
addresses to shared global IP addresses.
4. Many to Many No Overload: In Many-to-Many No Overload mode, the Prestige maps the each local IP
addresses to unique global IP addresses.
5. Server: This type allows us to specify multiple inside servers of different types behind the NAT.
Port numbers do not change for One-to-One and Many-to-Many-No Overload NAT
The following table summarizes these types.

mapping types.

4.5.2 NAT Server Sets
A NAT Server Set is a list of LAN side servers mapped to external ports (similar to the old SUA menu 15.1 before).
Multiple Servers Behind NAT
If you wish, you can make inside servers for different services, e.g., web or FTP, visible to the outside users, even though NAT makes your whole inside network appear as a single machine to the outside world. A service is identified by the port number, e.g., web service is on port 80 and FTP on port 21.
As an example (see the following figure), if you have a web server at 192.168.1.36 and an FTP server
192.168.1.33, then you need to specify for port 80 (web) the server at IP address 192.168.1.36 and for port 21 (FTP) another at IP address 192.168.1.33.
Please note that a server can support more than one service, e.g., a server can provide both FTP and DNS service, while another provides only web service.

4.6.3 Example 3 – General Case
In this example, we have 3 IGAs from our ISP. We have many departments but two have their own FTP server. All departments share the same router. We want to reserve 1 IGA for each department with an FTP server and the other IGA is used by all. We want to map the FTP servers to the first two of our IGAs and the other LAN traffic to the remaining IGA. We also want to map out third IGA to an inside web server and mail server. We need to configure 4 rules, 2 bi-directional and 2 one directional as follows.
Rule 1.
We map our first IGA to our first inside FTP server for FTP traffic in both directions (
1: 1
mapping, giving both local and global IP addresses).
Rule 2.
We map our second IGA to our second inside FTP server for FTP traffic in both directions (

Rule 4.
We map our other outgoing LAN traffic to IGA3 (

Chapter 5:
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.
In this chapter, we will discuss the parameters that are protocol independent. The protocol-dependent configuration (TCP/IP) will be covered in

Remote Node Configuration

Chapter 5
.

5.1 Remote Node Setup

This section describes the protocol-independent parameters for a remote node.
5.1.1 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’s 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.
5.1.2 Remote Node Profile

5.1.3 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
Remote Node Configuration 5-5
Page 76
P100IH ISDN Router
successful authentication, please make sure that you specify the correct authentication protocol when connecting to such an implementation.
5.1.4 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.
5.1.5 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 below:

BTR & MTR Setting No. of
channel(s) used

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.

Remote Node TCP/IP Configuration

This chapter shows you how to configure the TCP/IP parameters of a remote node. A typical LAN-to-LAN application is to use your Prestige to connect a branch office to the headquarters, as depicted in the following diagram.
6.1 LAN-to-LAN Application
Figure 6-1 TCP/IP LAN-to-LAN Application
For the branch office, you need to configure a remote node in order to dial out to the headquarters. Additionally, you may also need to define static routes if some services reside beyond the immediate remote LAN.

6.1.2 Static Route Setup
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 doesn’t 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.
Figure 6-4 Example of Static Routing Topology
To configure an IP static route, use Menu 12, Static Route Setup, as displayed below.
From Menu 12, select one of the available IP static routes to open Menu 12.1 - IP Static Route Setup, as shown below.

Dial-in Server Configuration

You can configure your Prestige to receive calls from remote dial-in users, e.g., telecommuters, as well as remote nodes. There are several differences between dial-in users and remote nodes, as summarized in the table below.
Table 7-1 Remote Dial-in Users/Remote Nodes Comparison Chart
Remote Dial-in Users Remote Nodes
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 Default Dial In Setup (Menu 13).
This chapter discusses how to setup default dial-in parameters for both remote node and remote dial-in users. The following sections give two examples of how your Prestige can be configured as a dial-in server.
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.
Dial-In Server Configuration 7-1
Page 90
P100IH ISDN Router
7.1 Remote Access Server
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 dial-in user profile for each telecommuter. Additionally, you need to configure the Default Dial­In Setup to set the operational parameters for all dial-in users.
An example of remote access server for telecommuters is shown in
Figure 7-1 Example of Telecommuting LAN-to-LAN Server Application
Your Prestige can also be used as a dial-in server for LAN-to-LAN application to provide access for the workstations on a remote network. For your Prestige to be set up as a LAN-to-LAN server, you need to configure the Default Dial-In Setup to set the operational parameters for incoming calls. Additionally, you must create a remote node for the router on the remote network (
An example of your Prestige being used as a LAN-to-LAN server is shown next.

).

Figure 7-2 Example of a LAN-to-LAN Server Application

7.2 Default Dial-In 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 parameters from that particular remote node.
7.2.1 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. In previous ZyNOS versions, only the remote node was capable of CLID callback because there was no outgoing information for dial-in users. Some vendors, e.g., Cisco, require mutual authentication, i.e., the node that initiates the call will request a user name and password from the far end that it is dialing to. If the remote node requires mutual authentication, please fill in the fields when a dial-in user to whom we are calling back requests authentication. In this ZyNOS version, the CLID outgoing information will be set in Menu 13, and dial-in users can avail of callback.

7.3.1 CLID Authentication
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.
7.3.2 Callback
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.

8.1 Getting Started
8.1.1 Things you need to know before you start using Supplemental Services.
In North America, Additional Call Offering (ACO) is required on your ISDN line in order to use the
Call Waiting feature. Flexible Calling is required on your ISDN line in order to use the Three-Way­Calling or Call Transfer features. You need to check with your telephone company to confirm if these services are available to you and if so, are there any additional charges for them.
In some cases, your telephone company may only enable these features on your first directory (phone)
number. In this case, you may want to request that the features be enabled on your second directory number as well.
