SET/DEFINE/CHANGE Commands
DIALBACK NUMBER
The DIALBACK NUMBER is used for Mandatory Dialback as well as for PPP
Callback on the same port (where the user is unable to specify a dialback service).
DIALOUT NUMBER
The DIALOUT NUMBER clause, used in interactive dialout commands, specifies
the actual number to dial. The keyword ANY specifies that any number may be
used. If the DIALOUT number is not fully specified, and it is not contained in the
optional DIALOUT SERVICE definition, the dialer engine will prompt the user
for the number.
The DIALOUT SERVICE clause specifies a default dialer service to be used when
attempting a dial-out connection. The standard rules for service-names apply.
The two NUMBER clauses set default phone numbers, which can be used by any
user in the realm. Because the set of permissible characters in phone numbers
varies from country to country, the User Interface allows almost all printable
characters to be entered on the command line. It is the responsibility of the
administrator to configure only meaningful phone numbers. The default is
NONE.
There is no requirement for the security administrator to associate every possible
field with each local database entry. This feature permits the administrator to
configure fewer or more local database records for a given NVRAM allocation.
