handle the line by hand.

Note: You can use WinRoute’s web interface (see chapter

11

) to dial or hang up

lines.

For VPN tunnels, the Enable and Disable buttons are available that can be used to

enable /disable the VPN tunnel selected for details, see chapter

23.3

If a network adapter, a Dial-in interface or a VPN server is selected, these buttons

are inactive.

Special interfaces

Interfaces include also the following special items:

Dial-In

This interface represents the server of the RAS service (dial-up connection to the net-

work) on the WinRoute host. This interface can be used for definition of traffic rules (see

chapter

7

) for RAS clients which are connecting to this server.

Dial-In interfaces are considered as trustworthy (clients connected via this interface use

it to access the local network). This interface cannot be either configured or removed. If

you do not consider RAS clients as parts of trustworthy networks for any reason, you can

move the Dial-In interface to Other interfaces.

Note:

1.

If both RAS server and WinRoute are used, the RAS server must be configured to

assign clients IP addresses of a subnet which is not used by any segment of the local

network. WinRoute performs standard IP routing which might not function unless f

this condition is met.

2.

For assigning of IP addresses to RAS clients connecting directly to the WinRoute host,

it is not possible to use the WinRoute’s DHCP server. For details, see chapter

8.2

.
