Remote Node Configuration - NETGEAR RT338 Reference Manual

Chapter 7

Remote Node Configuration

This chapter describes how to configure your Model RT338 ISDN Router to access a remote node.
A remote node represents both a remote gateway and the network behind it, across an ISDN
connection. A remote node must be defined and configured in order for your router to place calls
to a remote network or answer calls from a remote network. When a remote node is configured
properly, traffic to the remote LAN triggers the router to make a call automatically (Dial On
Demand). Similarly, calls from the remote LAN are answered automatically and security is
checked.
An Internet service provider is the most common type of remote node. This application was
described in the previous chapter. Configurations for other applications are provided in this
chapter.
