4.1 Configuration tools and
approaches
BAT are flexible devices that support a variety of tools (i.e. software) and ap-
proaches (in the form of communication options) for their configuration. First,
a look at the approaches.
You can connect to an BAT with three different access methods (according
to the connections available).
D Through the connected network (LAN as well as WAN—inband)
D Through the configuration interface (config interface) on the rear of the
router (also known as outband)
D Remote configuration via ISDN access or modem (analog or GSM with
BAT Modem Adapter Kit)
U What is the difference between these three possibilities?
On one hand, the availability: Configuration via outband is always available.
Inband configuration is not possible, however, in the event of a network fault.
Remote configuration is also dependent on an ISDN connection.
