Forum 523/524 in a LAN with an IP-enabled Server
RAS Access
In a LAN with an IP-enabled server you can also enable external
computers to dial in via the Forum 523/524. To do this, you
should coordinate with the network administrator the IP address
space which can be assigned to an external computer dialling in,
and enter it in the Configurator, Network: RAS: PPTP/IPSEC/
ISDN menu, under Address Range.

RAS access by the Forum 523/524 in a LAN with an IP server
The user account administered by the Forum 523/524, with which
dialling in is permitted, only allows the establishment of direct and
anonymous TCP/IP connections such as HTTP, FTP or SMTP con-
nections. If you additionally want to allow file or printer access in
the network, you must set up a suitable user account on the
addressed server for network log-in. If you use the same log-in
name for the Forum 523/524 user account and the same pass-
word for the network log-in, you have to enter this combination
only once when dialling in.
Note: In a larger Windows network with several segments, the
lists of computer names visible in the network environment can no
longer be established by broadcasts. In this case you use a special
WINS server whose address the Forum 523/524 does not make
known to the workstation computer when dialling in with IPSEC or
ISDN. For this reason, you enter the address of a WINS server
manually in the network settings of the workstation.
