Configuration Steps for an Office-to-Office Connection

15-12

PortMaster Configuration Guide

Note – Configuring the maximum ports setting to a value higher than 0 causes the
PortMaster to dial out to a continuous location, or become available for dial-out to an
on-demand location. By configuring the maximum ports setting last, you ensure that
the PortMaster will not attempt to make a connection with a location until you have
configured all the settings for that location.

After you configure the location table as shown in Table 15-9, enter the following
command to save the configuration:

Command> save all

For more information about configuring location table settings, refer to Chapter 8,
“Configuring Dial-Out Connections.”

Testing the Setup

You should test the configuration before setting either of the locations for on-demand
dialing. To test the configuration, follow these steps:

1.

Enter the following commands to connect from the Paris office to the
London office:

Command> set console s1
Command> set debug 0x51
Command> dial london

2.

Monitor the dial-and-connect sequence between the two locations.

3.

If everything connects as expected, reset the port on the Office Router in
the Paris office, turn off debugging, and change the location type to
on-demand.

Command> reset s1
Command> set debug off
Command> set location london on_demand
