Remote Gateway 9150 Installation and Administration Guide 83
January 2005 Planning for Remote Gateway 9150 unit installation
IP addresses
If you want to administer the Remote Gateway 9150 unit over the IP network,
the following information is required for the Remote Gateway 9150 unit:
!
IP address (it must be unique)
!
subnet mask
!
default gateway
If you want to route voice traffic over the IP network, you also need the RLC’s
IP address. The Remote Gateway 9150 unit uses these IP addresses to establish
the connection with each other.
Connection link between the RLC and the Remote Gateway 9150 unit
information
If you want to route voice traffic over the PSTN, the telephone numbers for each
end of the network are required. If security is being implemented, the security
authentication information (Caller ID or security identifier) is also needed.
Online/offline schedule
You can configure each port on the RLC with a schedule that identifies when a
remote site is online (connected to the corporate PBX) or offline. When the
Remote Gateway 9150 unit is in offline mode, calls cannot be made or received
through the host PBX over the IP or PSTN.
You can configure only one online/offline schedule for the RLC port. This
schedule affects all stations at the Remote Gateway 9150 site. Create offline
entries:
!
for times when the connection to the host PBX is not normally active, such
as during evenings and weekends
!
to prevent the Remote Gateway 9150 unit from staying online permanently,
thereby eliminating unwanted ISDN BRI charges
To help you plan the online/offline schedule configuration on the RLC, use the
“Reach Line Card Online/Offline Table Configuration” form in the Reach Line
Card Installation and Administration Guide (NTP 555-8421-210).
