For a user to gain access to the 833IS, the user must be defined to the system. You
can do this in a number of different ways:

You can define the user in the internal database of the 833IS. The internal database
lets you set up the following for each user:
■ User ID.
■ User password.
■ Administration privileges.
■ Fixed MAC address, if required.
■ User IP address, if required.
■ Inactivity time-out.
■ Amount of connect time.
■ Callback.
■ Protocols
■ Compression
■ Packet Filtering

Shared User Database
Access to an 833IS can be controlled by using the Internal Database that is
configured in a Remote 833IS server.
