TCP/IP Configuration

This chapter describes how to configure your Model RM356 Modem Router for TCP/IP.

Depending on your particular applications, you must configure different menus. For instance,

Internet access is the most common application of TCP/IP. For this application, you should

configure Menu 4. Configurations for other applications are provided in the following sections.

LAN-to-LAN Application

An example of a typical LAN-to-LAN application is to use the router to call from a branch office

to the headquarters, as shown in Figure 7-1.

Figure 7-1. LAN-to-LAN Application

For the branch office, you must configure a remote node in order to dial out to the headquarters.

Additionally, you may also need to configure static routes if some services reside beyond the

immediate remote LAN.
