Once the ISDN switch type and directory numbers have been configured, the IOLINK
router must be reset for the new values to take effect and for the ISDN BRI interface to
register with the central switch.

Soft Reset
Once the IOLINK router has restarted it is ready to establish ISDN
connections.
With the ISDN numbers and switch type defined, an ISDN call may be placed to another
properly configured bridge/router. The calls may be placed manually or automatically. The
automatic call features available are Auto-Call or IP Address Connect. An Auto-Call
connection is established each time the IOLINK router starts up. An IP Address Connect
call is established to a specifically configured remote IOLINK router when certain IP traffic
is received from the local LAN.
Note that any time the switch type is changed a soft reset must be performed before the
change will take effect.
The switch type is not saved through a full reset; the IOLINK router will come up with the
default switch type – NET3; if you require a different switch type, it must be re-entered after
a configuration reload. It is strongly recommended that the entire configuration set of the
router be saved (Dump config.txt to the console) then reloaded (Restore config.txt from the
console) after a full reset.
The configuration options described here are only for initial set-up and configuration
purposes. For more complete information on all of the configuration parameters
available, please refer to the “IOLINK-520 & IOLINK-PRO VPN Menus Reference
Manual.PDF” on the accompanying CD-ROM.
2.2.1.1 - PPP ISDN Manual Call Quick Connections
The PPP IOLINK-520 & IOLINK-PRO should be configured with a remote site
profile entry for each router that will be called (see section 2.3.1). A manual direct dial
connection may be performed to establish an initial connection to a remote site router.
Once the connection is established and working properly, the remote site configuration for
that router should be entered into the IOLINK router. The remote site profile enables
ISDN calls to be placed automatically each time the IOLINK router starts up (Auto-Call) or
automatically depending upon the time of day activation schedule or upon receiving IP
frames from the local LAN destined for the IP network connected to that particular PPP
router.
