Configuring the Client
Site for a LAN Modem
If the client dialing into the LAN Modem is another LAN Modem, you must
configure a new service provider profile on the client LAN Modem which will dial
into the remote LAN Modem. You then use this service provider to place
automatic or manual calls to the server LAN Modem as needed.
When using a client LAN Modem to dial into another LAN Modem via the
Single-User dial-in scenario, you must manually change the IP address of the client
LAN Modem in order to distinguish between the two networks. Refer to
“Changing the IP address on the LAN Modem” for instructions.
