Configuring Dial-In User Access

This chapter describes how to configure dial-in access user connection profiles for
remote access.
Standalone remote workstations use a dial-in user connection profile to connect to
the router over a switched connection such as over an ISDN line. The connected
workstation effectively becomes a LAN node for the duration of the connection
and its ARP information is proxied by the router.
When a switched call is answered, the router searches the local profile database
for a match with the received name and password. If an appropriate profile is not
found, the call is rejected. If a profile is found, other information in the entry is
used to configure the connection.
To allow dial-in access from remote users, you must select Dial-in Access for
Off-Site Users in the BayStack 820 ISDN Router Manager customization dialog
box. If you want to configure NetWare resources for remote access connections,
select Share NetWare (IPX) Resource. For details, refer to "Customizing the
BayStack 820 ISDN Router Manager Interface" on page 3-3.
Before you configure a dial-in user connection profile, you need to configure the
ISDN connection. For details, refer to "Configuring ISDN Port Settings" on
page 3-9.
