Configuring ISDN Interfaces 95
interface name in the ISDN Call Destination. When the call is
made or comes in, an available interface, and therefore any free B
channel, is selected from the group. Thus, you don't need to
dedicate interfaces to specific destinations.
Press <Enter> to display a list of already configured interface
groups. Select one and press <Enter> again.
2. Check the Interface Status .
The interface status defines whether or not the respective inter-
face is loaded when the router is brought up.
Default: Enabled
Options: Enabled, Disabled, Time Restricted
Enabled means that the interface is loaded into server memory
each time the system is started or reinitialized. If this is the first
interface of an ISDN-Controller, the controller is also loaded.
Disabled means that the interface is not loaded.
If you select "Time Restricted", you can configure the periods
during which the interface is enabled and disabled in a separate
menu (see Step 11 on page 105). For example, you can disable the
Interface Status during the weekends to make sure that no one is
able to dial into or out of your LAN. When the Interface Status
changes from Enabled to Disabled, all active connections over
this interface are cleared.
3. Enter your International Dialing Prefix .
Specify the prefix you have to dial in your country to make
international calls.
For a complete configuration, you should always enter the
International Dialing Prefix and values for the parameters
Country Code, Area Code, ISDN Number and, if necessary, PBX
Extension, PBX Outside Line Access (or EAZ or MSN).
The International Dialing Prefix depends on the country in
which you are installing the NetWare MultiProtocol Router for
ISDN.
Example 1: The International Dialing Prefix to dial out of
Germany is 00.
