CONFIGURING THE DUAL 56K LAN
M
ODEM FOR PRIVATE NETWORK
A
CCESS
This chapter explains how to configure the Dual 56K LAN Modem for shared
access to a private network, such as a remote corporate office LAN. This includes
the option of connecting to the Internet through your private network, if your
private network allows you this option.
For instructions on configuring advanced parameters, or configuring the LAN
Modem for dial-in support, refer to Chapters 7 and 8, respectively.
The configuration windows shown in this chapter may differ slightly from what is
displayed on your computer.
Before You Start the
Configuration
Before you configure the Dual 56K LAN Modem for shared private network
access, you should already have completed the following steps:
■ Run the EZ-LAN tool or performed the TCP/IP and IP Address check on your
computer, as described in Chapter 3.
■ Installed the hardware, as described in Chapter 4.
In addition, you will have to obtain the following information from the network
administrator at your private network:
■ Telephone number(s) you must dial to access this private network
■ User ID and password you must dial to access this private network
■ IP Address and Subnet mask of your private network
Depending on the setup of your private network, you may also need the following
information (check with your network administrator):
■ WAN Link IP Address (necessary if the private network to which you are
connecting requires a static IP address and subnet mask)
■ Domain Name for the private network
■ DNS IP address(es)
■ (Optional) Call Waiting Disable Command (your telephone company can
provide you with this value)
