Dial-In Server Application

Telecommuting enables people to work at remote sites and still have
access to the resources in the business office. Typically, a
telecommuter will use a client workstation with TCP/IP or IPX and
dial-out capabilities, e.g., a Windows 95 PC or a Macintosh and an
ISDN Terminal Adapter (TA). For telecommuters to call in to your
LAN, you need to configure a Dial-In User Profile for each
telecommuter. Additionally, you need to configure the Default Dial-In
Setup to set the operational parameters for all dial-in users. You can
configure up to eight Remote Dial-in Users for your IRT-1001 or IRT-
1002.

This application allows the router to provide services for workstations
on a remote network. For the router to be set up as a dial-in server,

parameters for incoming call. Additionally, you will have to create a
Remote Node for the router on the remote network (see the Remote
Node Configuration chapter starting on page 43). An example of a
