Default Route
With a default route, all data is automatically forwarded to one connection if no other suit-
able route is available. Access to the Internet should always be set up as the default route
to the Internet Service Provider (ISP). Further information on possible route types can be
found under Networking->Routes.
Activating NAT
With Network Address Translation (NAT), you conceal your whole network to the outside
world behind one IP address. You should certainly do this for your connection to the Inter-
net Service Provider (ISP).
Only outgoing sessions are allowed initially if NAT is activated. To allow certain connec-
tions from outside to hosts within the LAN, these must be explicitly defined and admitted.
Connection Idle Timeout
The connection idle timeout is determined in order to clear the connection automatically if it
is not being used, i.e. if data is no longer being sent, to help you save costs.
Block after Connection Failure
You use this function to set up a waiting time for outgoing connection attempts after which
your device's connection attempt is regarded as having failed.
Authentication
When a call is received on ISDN connections, the calling party number is always sent over
the ISDN D-channel. This number enables your device to identify the caller (CLID),
provided the caller is entered on your device. After identification with CLID, your device can
additionally carry out PPP authentication with the connection partner before it accepts the
call.
Your device needs the necessary data for this, which you should enter here, for all PPP
connections. Establish the type of authentication process that should be performed, then
