As opposite to the picture above, you may want to set the “Use GPRS as
default route” to “Disabled” in order to follow the example setup.
Note: Arctic should have only one default route (Ethernet, GPRS, or VPN-Tunnel)
enabled at any time. Disable the LAN and VPN-tunnel default gateways if you enable the
GPRS as default gateway.
14.3. Configuring the Dial-in settings of the Arctic
The Dial-in is designed for accessing the Arctic via circuit-switched data connection (PSTN/GSM
data) with a modem. The Arctic establishes a PPP connection between a computer equipped with
a modem (or GSM data device). The Dial-in connection is useful for e.g. field maintenance
personnel in a situation, where the VPN tunnel cannot be used for communication.
After the connection is established, the Arctic can be accessed in the same manner than if the
Arctic would be in the local area network. Note however, that the connection is relatively slow
because of limitations of circuit switched data network throughput.
