Remote Access
You must define the location of your remote user account database by selecting Use Local
Client List or Use RADIUS Server. Follow the instructions for the user database that your
system will use.
Note: The Local Client list enables you to add a maximum of 64 users.
Use Local Client List
Use Local Client List enables you to create an authentication database consisting of user
names, passwords and dial-in options for each remote user. Enter the following information
for each client:
User Name: Enter the User Name to authenticate the remote dial-in user.
Password: Enter the Password to authenticate the remote dial-in user.
Password Verification: Re-enter the remote dial-in user’s password.
Callback Type: Select one of the following three callback options for each remote client:
• No Callback: Select this option to enable the remote user to immediately connect to the
network after being authenticated. No Callback is the default setting.
• Fixed Callback: This option enables you to specify a fixed callback telephone number for the
user. After the PPP negotiation, the device will callback the telephone number you enter in the
callback telephone number box. This option is best used for clients requiring callback security
while dialing-in from the same location each time.
• Variable Callback: Select Variable Callback for remote users that travel or dial-in from various
locations and need callback security. This option enables clients to specify the callback
telephone number each time they connect to the network.
Click Add after entering information for each Local Client.
Click Next and continue with Step 9 when all users have been added to the database.
