Dial-Out Setup for PPP-Client FP Web-Server V2.11132Comments:• It is possible to dial up one Internet Service Provider (Dial-up ISP) and use the emailserver(s) from a second ISP (email ISP). However, some ISPs will not allow this.Using one ISP for both dialup and email is recommended.• In the Internet, email server(s) are normally addressed with a name rather than with itsdirect IP address. But for name resolution, the IP address of an Domain Name Server(DNS) is necessary. (FP Web-Server hardware version using BIOS v1.03 simplifiesDNS usage).For easier configuration using the email server(s), direct IP addresses arerecommended (...if they can be acquired and are not changed by the email ISP).• An SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) server is needed to send emails. An InternetSMTP server only allows registered users (registered email sender addresses) to sendemails. Additionally some email ISPs protect their SMTP servers with a login procedure.For this a POP3 email server is used to check the user name and password before anemail can be sent.Most of the time a POP3 login is used.• You can also set up an FP Web-Server that is configured as a PPP-Server which canthe be dialed up by a distant FP Web-Server's PPP-Client (instead of an ISP). This FPWeb-Server, i.e. the PPP-Server, works as a dialup gateway for a LAN where an emailserver can be used to send emails.• For further details on special connections, please refer to the following:- "When Using a Cellular Phone (GSM) Modem (see page 135)"- "When Using GPRS Internet Connections (see page 136)"- "When Using ISDN Adapters (see page 136)"10.1.2 Notes for Advanced UsersIdle timeoutIf you use the FPWIN Pro library ”M_CE_Lib” to send emails, you have to increase the idletimeout for Internet dialup operations. In the library delivered (see installation path ”Programs /Panasonic MEW Control / FP-WEB2 / FPWIN-Pro_Example”) with FP-Web-Tool version 1.3and later, the idle timeout is already set to 3 minutes.GatewaysIf your FP Web-Server is configured to use a gateway, i.e. if communication with the FPWeb-Server is set up via a gateway, you need to take into account that the FP Web-Server doesnot use this gateway during an active dialup connection. This means that TCP port, FPWIN,
