Dialup

In the platform Dialup Configuration view of the JACE, enable the “Captive Network” section, and configure it to dial the ISP at the appropriate number(s), with the user name and password used by the ISP to authenticate your dialup connection. See Figure 7 for an example.

If the ISP limits the continuous connection time, set the “Max Connect Time” to be within this duration.

NoteTypically, you also enable and configure the “Listener” section of Dialup Configuration. This permits “dial-in” access from Workbench, in case problems arise in the “always connected to ISP” operation of DDNS. In this case, you could call in during the “Min. Disconnect Time” as defined in the captive network setup.
