90362-01 Dial-up Connections 7-5
If you are using CHAP authentication (which is on by default for
inbound connections), this crypto key needs to correspond to the
CHAP “secret” sent from the remote end of the connection.
Note that adding or changing the crypto key for a dial-up connection
also changes the crypto key in the dial-in user record of the same
name.
7.
In the
Dial-in
field, select whether or not you want to create a dial-in
user record to authenticate any inbound connections from the remote
NetBlazer. Select
yes
to have the dial-in record created,
no
if you do
not want a record created. If you do not create a dial-in record, then
calls from the remote NetBlazer will be rejected because your
NetBlazer does not have the user record necessary to authenticate
the connection. If you do create a dial-in record, it will use the same
password and/or crypto key as you enter on this screen.
8.
In the
Phone number
field, type the phone number of the remote
NetBlazer. You can format the number using spaces, dashes, and
parentheses; for example,
9,1 (408) 555-1234
. If your modem needs
to dial a prefix, such as 9, to reach an outside line, be sure to include
that number as the first number in this field.
9.
For most configurations, you should leave the
Characteristics
field
set to the default setting of
dialout
. However, if you are using ISDN,
you should select
isdndialout
, which configures a line for use with
either an ISDN terminal adapter or with a built-in Basic Rate ISDN
(BRI) adapter.
All of the other settings are used only in very specific instances.
pep-dialout
is used to override standard modem settings when you
are using pep-compatible modems at both ends of a connection.
v25dialout
configures a synchronous line for use with a TA.
bridial-out
is used for BRI-only ISDN connections.
v32dialout
configures a modem for v.32 operations.
Note:
This field is case sensitive. You need to be very careful with case when en-
tering a password.
Also, to avoid problems with remote password files, your crypto key should
not include any of the following characters: “
@
”,“
:
”, “
%
”, “
\
”, “
/
”, “
{
”,
}
”,
or any nonprinting characters.
