Configure ISDN dialing parameters
ÉWeb
1. Go to Configuration > Network > Interfaces > ISDN >ISDNDialling. When the router is first
powered up, navigating to the Configuration > Network > Interfaces > ISDN page displays a
message indicating that the MODEM card does not have a PPP instance associated with it.
Follow the link on the page and select an unassigned PPP interface to the MODEM. When the
browser is refreshed and the Configuration > Network > Interfaces > ISDN page redisplayed,
it should show the parameters described below, along with a message at the top of the page
indicating which PPP instance has been selected.
2. Configure ISDNdialing parameters:
This ISDN interface is using PPP n
This message simply states which PPP instance has been assigned to the interface.
Description
A memorable name for the interface. This may be useful when referring to the interface, rather
than having to remember the name and the function of the interface.
Dial out using numbers
The telephone numbers to use to make an outgoing connection, in sequence.
Prefix n to the dial out number
The dialing prefix to use, if needed. This may be necessary when using a PABX.
Username
The username to use when using the PPP instance to connect to the remote peer. This
username is normally provided by an ISP for use with a dial-in Internet access service.
Password
The password to use for authenticating the remote peer, along with the above username.
Confirm password
Type the password into this text box to enable the router to confirm that the password has
been entered identically in both boxes.
Allow the remote device to assign a local IP address to this router
When this radio button is selected, the remote peer will assign this PPP interface an IP
address.
Try to negotiate a.b.c.d as the local IP address for this router
If it would be useful, but not essential, to have a predefined IP address for the interface, the
second radio button should be selected and the desired IP address entered into the text box to
the right.
