Description of the menu options
Number-list
Under this option, a number list is managed in which you can enter 64 different call
numbers with their associated device names. This list can be used to assign the call
numbers (CLI) transferred by remote stations to the remote station names.
The entries in the number list for the two calling devices GLASGOW and LONDON might
appear as in the table below, thus permitting the name to be derived from the call number
supplied and, if applicable, permitting a callback to be initiated via the name list:
Dialup-remote
875463
040785647
This number list is required for passive connection establishment. The remote station
call numbers must be entered without leading zeros.
The D-channel protocol that is currently activated is then used for a call number test.
If the 'Protect number' setting is selected and a call is received from a remote station, the
remote station call number sent is compared to the entries in the number list. If the
station number sent is identical to an entry in the list, the caller is authorized and the
connection is established.
If the 'Protect no./name' setting is selected and a call is received from a remote station,
the remote station call number sent is compared to the entries in the number list. If the
call number sent is identical to an entry in the list, the caller is authorized to establish
the connection. In addition, it is possible to derive the name of the remote station from
the number list and, therefore, the layer that is to be used for this connection. The
connection is then established using this layer and name verification is initiated using the
layer detected (or using the default layer if no layer is detected).
If the name of the remote station (and thus the layer to be used) cannot be determined
using the number list, the call will be accepted using the default layer and the name list
will be checked for a suitable entry after the protocol (PPP) negotiation.
Script-list
Some Internet providers (e.g. CompuServe) conduct a script-controlled log-on procedure
before a PPP negotiation. In order to be able to establish this type of connection as well,
a simple script processing procedure is also implemented in the ELSA LANCOM (see
'Script processing').
In this table, the scripts are defined and assigned to the remote stations. The table has
the following layout:
Device-name
CSERVE
The entries in the script list have the following meaning:
ELSA LANCOM Business
Device-name
GLASGOW
LONDON
