LANCOM are flexible devices that support a variety of tools (i.e. software) and approaches (in the form of communication options) for their configuration. First, a look at the approaches.
You can connect to an LANCOM with three different access methods (according to the connections available).
- Through the connected network (LAN as well as WAN—inband)
- Through the configuration interface (config interface) on the rear of the router (also known as outband)
- Remote configuration via ISDN access or modem (analog or GSM with LANCOM Modem Adapter Kit)
