Features 19
■ Network Address Translation (NAT) between LAN and WAN, which allows
multiple users on the LAN to share a single remote connection and user
account.
■ Intelligent NAT, an enhancement to NAT which enables UDP applications to
work with the Dual 56K LAN Modem.
■ Multiplexing traffic from several computers to remote destinations
Bandwidth Management
■ Automatic call initiation (also known as dial-on-demand routing)
■ Automatic disconnection of idle calls after a specified length of time
■ Multilink PPP, which combines two PPP calls on two analog lines into a single,
high-speed network connection.
■ Bandwidth on Demand using Bandwidth Allocation Control Protocol
(BACP)/Bandwidth Allocation Protocol (BAP), based on a specified threshold.
■ Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA), which allows you to place a voice or
data call while a Multilink PPP call is active.
■ Manual call connection and disconnection
Remote Management
■ Remote management via Web browser-based interface
■ Remote firmware upgrades
