Dial-in Functionality 25 Dial-in Functionality When you set up the LAN Modem for dial-in support, you can configure up to ten designated Dial-in Users to dial in to the local LAN. In addition, you must configure Dial-in Global Parameters which apply to all dial-in calls. When you configure Dial-in Global Parameters, you choose whether to allow one or both channels to be used for dial-in calls. In addition, you choose whether to set up all dial-in connections as single channel calls or Multilinkenabled calls, and you also set the number of rings before the LAN Modem answers the incoming data call. Depending upon your choice, the following typical calling scenarios become possible: Simultaneous Dial-in and Dial-out Calls If you configure the LAN Modem to make only one channel available for dial-in calls, you can have one dial-in and one dial out call occurring simultaneously, as shown in Figure 11.

Dial-in Functionality
When you set up the LAN Modem for dial-in support, you can configure up to ten
designated
Dial-in Users
to dial in to the local LAN. In addition, you must
configure
Dial-in Global Parameters
which apply to all dial-in calls.
When you configure Dial-in Global Parameters, you choose whether to allow one
or both channels to be used for dial-in calls. In addition, you choose whether to
set up all dial-in connections as single channel calls or Multilink-
enabled calls, and you also set the number of rings before the LAN Modem
answers the incoming data call. Depending upon your choice, the following
typical calling scenarios become possible:
Simultaneous Dial-in
and Dial-out Calls
If you configure the LAN Modem to make only one channel available for dial-in
calls, you can have one dial-in and one dial out call occurring simultaneously, as
shown in Figure 11.
