12.5 Dial-out
12.5.1 Set the Dial-Out Server
You can use the MoRoS GPRS 1.3 as dial-out server. The MoRoS GPRS 1.3 will automati-
cally establish a PPP connection to a remote terminal, when the network traffic occurs in
the direction of the network of the terminal. The network traffic which may trigger a
connection setup can be limited by rules. This optional "Dialing filter" will ensure that
only packets from/to certain IP addresses or from/to certain ports trigger the dial-out
connection. This dial-out connection can be compared with the dial-in of a PC into the
Internet. Only after this dial-in, it will be possible to transfer IP data (e.g. web contents)
or to remotely access devices in the local network of the MoRoS GPRS 1.3, for example.
Configuration with the web interface
To turn on the dial-out server, select "Yes" in the option "Activate dial-out" of
the menu "Dial-out" (Figure 14, page 35 above, position 2).
For a GSM-CSD connection, enter the phone number of the PPP terminal (e.g.
the Internet provider) in the entry field "Phone number" for destination A
(Figure 14, page 35 above, position 3). You may enter a further phone number
(or "*99***1#" for a GPRS connection, see below) for destination B. The MoRoS
GPRS 1.3 will always use the destination which was last used for successfully
establishing a PPP connection. If the connection to destination x does not
work, the MoRoS GPRS 1.3 will attempt to reach the other destination, and
vice versa.
For a GPRS connection, enter "*99***1#" into the entry field at "Phone number"
for destination A (Figure 14, page 35 above, position 3). For destination A, en-
ter the APN of your mobile provider into the field "Access Point Name" (Figure
14, page 35 above, position 18), which is used to establish a GPRS connection.
You can enter one more APN for destination B. As an alternative, you may also
define a GSM-CSD connection with a traditional phone number for destina-
tion B.
Enter the User name and password for the PPP dial-in destinations A and B
(Figure 14, page 35 above, position 3).
Select the PPP authentification method (PAP or CHAP) to be used for destina-
tions A and B in the selection "Authentification" (Figure 14, page 35 above, po-
sition 4).
Enter a value for "Idle time" to define how long the connection will remain es-
tablished, if no data transfer takes place. Enter the required time into the
field "Idle time" (Figure 14, page 35 above, position 5) in seconds.
To maintain the connection for an unlimited time, enter the value "0".
Enter a value in the field Maximum connect time to limit the duration of a
connection. If you enter a maximum connection time, the connection will be
closed after this time period has expired. To keep the connection open, with-
out any time restrictions (until the connection is terminated for other rea-
sons), enter the value "0" in the field "Maximum connection time" (Figure 14,
page 35, above, position 6).
Save the settings by clicking "OK" (Figure 14, page 35, above, position 10).
