Basic Remote Networking Outgoing Connections
4-18
A port-specific telephone number will override a site telephone number. For example, site irvine may be
configured to use the number 635-9202 on any port it’s using, but only the number 845-7000 when it’s using
port 3.
4.6.4.6 Configure Authentication
When an outgoing connection is attempted, the remote router may or may not require the SCS to
authenticate itself. One of the following scenarios will generally apply:
◆ The remote router uses CHAP or PAP to prompt the SCS to authenticate itself
This scenario is the most common; the configuration instructions in this section assume that CHAP
or PAP will be used.
◆ The remote router requires a login password
In this case, the SCS will need to use a chat script to communicate the password to the remote router.
See Chapter 5, Additional Remote Networking, for instructions.
◆ The remote router does not require authentication
The instructions in this section will not be necessary. Continue to Configure Routing on page 4-18.
Before configuring authentication, ensure that you have the username and password required to log into the
remote router. In addition, determine whether the remote router will use PAP or CHAP to transmit the
username and password.
Configure the username and remote password to be transmitted.
Figure 4-30: Defining Local Username and Password
If CHAP will be used, enable CHAP on the site. To use PAP to transmit the username and password, enable
PAP on the site.

4.6.4.7 Configure Routing
Static routes to the site must be entered in the IP routing tables. To configure IP routing, see Chapter 6, IP.
