The Virtual TA client only supports the CAPI 2.0 protocol and has no built-in FAX
engine.
z
One ISDN BRI interface has two B channels. The maximum number of active clients is
also two.

Before you configure the Virtual TA, you must set the correct country code.
As depicted in the above application scenario, the Virtual TA client can make an outgoing call
or accept an incoming call to/from a peer FAX machine or ISDN TA, etc.
Before you configure the Virtual TA (Remote
CAPI) Setup, please install the virtual TA client
first. Simply insert the CD bundled with your Vigor router, or directly double-click one of the
installer files. In which
Vsetup95.exe
is for Windows 95 OSR2.1 or higher;
Vsetup98.exe
is
for Windows 98, 98SE and Me; and
Vsetup2k.exe
is for Windows 2000. Follow the on-screen
instructions of the installer. The last step will ask you to restart your computer. Click
OK
to
restart your computer.
After the computer restarts, you will see a VT icon in the taskbar (usually in the bottom-right
of the screen, near the clock) as shown below.
When the icon text is GREEN, the Virtual TA client is connected to the Virtual TA server and
you can launch your CAPI-based software to use the client to access the router. Please read
your software user guide for detailed configuration. If the icon text is RED, it means the client
has lost the connection to the server. In such condition, please check the physical Ethernet
connection.
Next, click the
Virtual TA (Remote CAPI) Setup
link in the
Quick Setup
group to configure
the Virtual TA features.
Since the Virtual TA application is a client/server network model, you must configure it on
both ends to run properly your Virtual TA application.
By default, the Virtual TA server is enabled and the Username/Password fields are left blank.
Any Virtual TA client may login to the server. Once a single Username/Password field has
been filled in, the Virtual TA server will only allow clients with a valid Username/Password to
login. The screen of Virtual TA configuration is presented below.

Specify the MSN numbers for a specific client. If you have no MSN
services, leave this field blank.

MSN Configuration
If you have applied to an MSN number service, the Virtual TA server can assign which client
has the specified MSN number. When an incoming call arrives, the server will inform the
appropriate client. Now we set an example to describe the configuration of the MSN number.
Suppose that you could assign the MSN number
123
to the client “alan”.
Type the specified MSN number in the CAPI-based software. When the Virtual TA server
sends an alert signal to the specified Virtual TA client, the CAPI-based software will also
receive the action, the software will not accept the incoming call.

After finished basic configuration of the router, you can access Internet with ease. For the

3.1 Dynamic DNS Setup
The ISP often provides you with a dynamic IP address when you connect to the Internet via
your ISP. It means that the public IP address assigned to your router changes each time you
access the Internet. The Dynamic DNS feature lets you assign a domain name to a dynamic
WAN IP address. It allows the router to update its online WAN IP address mappings on the
specified Dynamic DNS server. Once the router is online, you will be able to use the
registered domain name to access the router or internal virtual servers from the Internet. It is
particularly helpful if you host a web server, FTP server, or other server behind the router.
Before you use the Dynamic DNS feature, you have to apply for free DDNS service to the
DDNS service providers. The router provides up to three accounts from three different DDNS
service providers. Basically, Vigor routers are compatible with the DDNS services supplied by
most popular DDNS service providers such as
www.dyndns.org, www.no-ip.com,
www.dtdns.com, www.changeip.com, www.dynamic- nameserver.com.
You should visit
their websites to register your own domain name for the router.
