Choose Site C if this LAN Modem will place or receive calls to another LAN
Modem previously configured as Site A or Site B. Choosing Site C will change
this LAN Modem's default IP address to 192.168.3.1
3 In the Auto Answer field, choose the number of rings to wait before the LAN
Modem automatically answers dial-in calls. By default Auto Answer is set to
Disable, which routes all incoming calls directly to any analog equipment attached
to the LAN Modem phone port. Note that Auto Answer must be set to 1 or
greater if you wish to allow dial-in access to the LAN Modem.
4 In the PPP Authentication field, choose the type of PPP authentication you want
the LAN Modem to use when negotiating dial-in access. Note that at least one
must authentication type must be enabled. By default, PAP, CHAP and MS-CHAP
are enabled. This means that if the client side can do any of the three,
authentication will be successful.
5 Click Submit to save changes.
If you chose Site B or Site C as the LAN to LAN Site Number, the LAN Modem will
re-initialize as its IP address is reset. The front panel LEDs flash, indicating a reset in
progress.
Once the LAN Modem's IP address has been changed, you can no longer access
the LAN Modem until your workstation has been restarted and has acquired an IP
address belonging to the new LAN Modem subnet.
Before dialing into a LAN Modem, a dial-in user account profile must be created
for every user or site that requires access. To create a dial-in user profile on the
central or server site using the Dial-In Wizard, refer to the appropriate application
below for specific Dial-In Wizard instructions. For more detailed descriptions of
these scenarios, refer to "Understanding the Three Dial-in Scenarios" later in this
