3Com Version 4.3 Drums User Manual


 
Chapter 6. Basic Configuration
Under Basic Configuration, you configure:
Telecommuting Module Type
The name of the Telecommuting Module
The computers and networks from which the Telecommuting Module can be administered
Policies for ping packets and unwanted packets
Default domain
Default gateways and DNS servers
RADIUS configuration
SNMP configuration
Creation of Telecommuting Module certificates and upload of CA certificates
This configuration is usually not changed very often.
Basic Configuration
On the Basic Configuration page, general settings for the Telecommuting Module are made. The most important
ones for getting started are the default gateway and, for SIP, the DNS server.
General
Name of this Telecommuting Module
Here, you can give your 3Com VCX IP Telecommuting Module a name. The name of the Telecommuting Module
is displayed in the title bar of your web browser. This can be a good idea if you administer several Telecommuting
Modules. The name is also used if you use SNMP and when you export log files into the WELF format.
Default domain
Here, you can enter a default domain for all settings. If a default domain is entered, the Telecommuting Module will
automatically assume that an incomplete computer name should be completed with the default. If, for example,
Default domain contains company.com, you could as the name of the computer axel.company.com use only
axel. If no default domain should be used, the Default domain field should contain a single dot (.).
IP policy
Here, you specify what will happen to IP packets which are neither SIP packets, SIP session media streams, or
Telecommuting Module administration traffic. Discard IP packets means that the Telecommuting Module ignores
the IP packets without replying that the packet did not arrive. Reject IP packets makes the Telecommuting Module
reply with an ICMP packet telling that the packet did not arrive.
