9.10.6.1  
Area: PSTN partner data 

Name  
A PSTN partner's name may occupy up to any 14 characters and must be unique.

IP address  
The PSTN partner's IP address. The IP address 0.0.0.0 is not allowed. The value 255.255.255.255 is a special case. With it, the IP protocol for this partner is deactivated.
The IP address must be unique within the network . Any new IP address to be configured should therefore be "pinged" before it is assigned. If the IP address responds, it should not be assigned again.  

Short hold (sec)  
The short hold parameter describes the length of time, in seconds, after which a PSTN connection should be cleared down upon inactivity. If new data packets for transmission arise, the connection is set up again (transparent to the user). This mechanism is also called background connect/disconnect. If new data packets for transmission arise, the connection is set up again (transparent to the user).

Direct inward dialing (DID)  
The DID number serves to identify the caller when it cannot transmit a call number (e.g., analog line). The identification of the caller and selection of the accompanying PSTN partner structure take place by calling this DID number instead of the system router call number.

Check DID  
The entered DID number is checked for consistency against the call numbers of the PSTN partner list. The call number must be unique.

Short hold mode  
The short hold mode can be activated or deactivated in this location.

Callback  
A remote station that is calling must transmit its calling party number in the D channel of the PSTN connection. If callback is activated, then the connection is rejected by the communication system, and the administered partner is then called back immediately. This prevents a non-authorized remote station from calling in. The call back function works without a connection at the initial call, so that costs arise only for the side calling back.

Remote analog modem  
This point must be activated if the partner is an analog modem.

IP mapping  
This parameter indicates whether IP mapping should be carried out.

9.10.6.2  
Area: Security 

User ID  
The identification for PAP, CHAP or the corresponding user identification of the service provider is entered in this location.

PAP activated / CHAP activated  
For the use of the PAP and/or CHAP security mechanism within the PPP protocol, PAP or CHAP must be activated in this location.

PAP Host / CHAP Host  
This point determines whether the remote station or the communication system should begin the authentication.
   -   Host activated means: the calling partner must authenticate itself with the communication system.
   -   Host deactivated means: HiPath 3000 can authenticate itself with the calling partner.

Password  
The appropriate password for either PAP or CHAP is entered here.

9.10.6.3  
PSTN partner table 
A PSTN partner consists of a maximum of 5 call numbers. If the partner is to be reached from the communication system, then a connection attempt is first initiated to the first call number marked as outgoing. If this fails (according to the number of administrated redials, see Basic settings), the next entries marked as outgoing are dialed one after another, until either the connection can be made or until no additional numbers are available.

Call number  
The PSTN call number at which the partner can be reached. It must be unique within the overall configuration and can consist of up to 22 decimal digits (0-9). In addition, a hyphen may be inserted for separating the necessary trunk seizure digits.

Call direc.  
This is used to lay down the characteristic of a connection.

Blocked  
The number is not used  
Incoming  
This call number is taken into account during the call number test of incoming calls (this entry is not used for the determination of the outgoing connection).  
Outgoing  
This entry is used to determine the call number of the outgoing connection (but is not taken into account during the call number test of incoming calls).  
In+Out  
This entry is used for the determination of the call number of the outgoing connection and is also taken into account during the call number test of incoming calls.  

9.10.6.4  
Area: Record no. 

Record no.  
The number of the entry is displayed next to Record no.:.

<, >  
The buttons > and < can be used to scroll between the PSTN partner entries that are already configured.

New  
A new entry is set up using the button New.

9.10.6.5  
Back button 
Back returns you to PSTN partner, where the data entered can be finally applied or rejected.
