IP ADDRESS POOL BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The IP Address Pool feature allows you to configure a list of IP addresses that can be dynamically

assigned to remote IP devices as they connect to the system. This would occur if a remote IP device

calls in to the system and has no IP address, and requests to have one assigned. With this capability,

you no longer need to assign permanent IP addresses to all possible remote IP devices, but rather

only as many IP addresses as the number of possible ISDN connections. If multiple connections are

used, you would not need as many IP addresses as the number of possible ISDN connections. This

can result in a reduction of the number of IP addresses required for remote IP devices.

When a PPP connection is established to the system, the system and the remote device exchange

their IP addresses during the IPCP (IP Control Protocol) phase. If the remote device does not know

its own IP address, the system will assign a proper IP address to it. A proper IP address can be a

permanent IP address configured for the remote device in the device table, or it can be one of the

IP addresses configured in the IP Address Pool. If an IP address from the address pool is used, it

will be returned to the pool when the connection is terminated. This allows the IP address to be

reused for other remote IP devices. As many as 64 IP addresses can be configured in the IP Address

Pool.

Notes: Dynamic IP address assignment from the IP Address Pool is only supported via PPP IPCP.

An IP address should not be configured for the device (either in the on-node device

database or in a remote authentication database) if an IP address is to be assigned to the

device from the IP address pool.

IP FILTERS

The IP Filter Configuration is a three-part process. It involves:

1. configuring packet types

2. configuring the filters to act on these packet types

3. applying the filters to selected points in the IP packet processing path

We suggest you become familiar with the IP Filtering mechanism before attempting a

configuration. Refer to IP Filters Background Information.

Understandably, when IP Filters are enabled, system performance will slow down. This is due to

the fact that every IP packet will experience a delay while the system is searching for a filter match.

System performance will also be affected by the number of packets, conditions and filters

configured. Refer to the Limitations section for details.
