56 CHAPTER 6: ADVANCED CONFIGURATIONSetting Up AdditionalService ProvidersA service provider is a location outside of your LAN that you would like to accessfrom your LAN, such as an ISP for access to the Internet or a private network suchas a remote office LAN. You can define up to four service providers (that is, remotedestinations) on the ISDN LAN Modem.This section describes how to do the following:n Differentiate between an ISP and private networkn Set up a connection to an ISPn Set up a connection to a private networkn Associate computers on the LAN with selected service providersn Edit service provider profilesIf you set up a connection to an ISP as part of the typical (that is, initial) setup (viathe ISP Wizard), then you already have one service provider defined. Because thisis considered a typical configuration, some default values have been assumed. Forexample, the connection to an ISP is associated with all of the computersconnected to your LAN. In other words, all computers on the LAN can connect tothat ISP and therefore the Internet. You may want to review the profile for this ISPto see if you want to make any changes. For instructions, refer to “Editing ServiceProvider Profiles.”ISP versus PrivateNetworkThere are two types of service providers you may configure, an ISP and a privatenetwork.
