Introduction

Dial-out ports can be just a simple Unix outbound cu call or your Terminal Server can act as a
dial-out router to facilitate Internet PPP requests.
As a dial-out router your Terminal Server automatically establishes a PPP/SLIP/CSLIP link to
that site. Then drops the call after a preset period of inactivity. This dial-on-demand feature is
automatic. Your Terminal Server will place the call when local TCP/IP traffic needs to be
routed to a configured remote site.
If not using dial-out routing, you will need a COMPORT redirector such as ioland. The CD
has the ioland utility if you are using Unix. Please load the appropriate binary onto your
system. If you can not find the correct binary, please compile the ioland.c source code for
your system (see your Unix manual).
