Guidelines for using remote Dial-in

Consider the following guidelines when using remote dial-in:
• The remote dial-in for administration and the backup WAN link share the same modem. If a
remote administration user is connected while the primary link breaks, the automatic backup
function does not occur.
• While using the back-up interface, BCM always calls. BCM does not answer an incoming call
from a router on the V.92 interface.

Using a dial-up interface as a primary connection

The dial-up interfaces on the BCM are used as a Primary or Secondary interfaces. The BCM does
not have default dial-up settings, the Administrator must add them.
