If an incoming call is not required to match a connection profile, and fails to do so, it is accepted as a standard
IP connection. Accepted, unmatched calls adopt the call parameter values set in the Default Answer Profile.
To determine the call parameter values that unmatched calls will adopt, customize the Default Answer Profile
parameters in the Default Answer Profile screen.
Customizing the default profile
You can customize the Netopia Router’s default profile in the Default Answer Profile screen.
1. Select Default Answer Profile in the WAN Configuration screen. Press Return. The Default Profile screen
appears.
2. To force incoming calls to match connection profiles, select Must Match a Defined Profile and toggle it to
Yes. Incoming calls that cannot be matched to a connection profile are dropped. To allow unmatched calls
to be accepted as standard IP or IPX connections, toggle Must Match a Defined Profile to No.
If Must Match a Defined Profile is set to Yes, the answer profile only accepts calls that use the same
authentication method defined in the Authentication item. If PAP or CHAP are involved, the caller must
have a name and password or secret that match one of the connection profiles. The caller must obtain
these from you or your network administrator before initiating the call.
For example, if Must Match a Defined Profile is set to Yes, and Authentication is set to PAP, then only
incoming calls that use PAP and match a connection profile will be accepted by the answer profile.
If authentication in the Default Answer Profile is set to CHAP, the value of the CHAP Challenge Name item
must be identical to the value of the Send Host Name item of the Connection Profile to be matched by the
caller.
If Must Match a Defined Profile is set to No, Authentication is assumed to be None, even if you’ve set it
to PAP or CHAP. The answer profile uses the caller’s IP address to match a connection profile. However,
the answer profile cannot discover a caller’s subnet mask; it assumes that the caller is not subnetting its
IP address:
