Introduction

This chapter describes the features of the NETGEAR Model RT328 ISDN Router and Model

RH348 ISDN Router and discusses planning considerations for installation.

About the Router

The Model RT328/RH348 router transports data from one local area network (LAN) to another

through a wide area network (WAN) connection.

The router compares the network addresses of data packets sent through the LAN to the entries in

its address tables. If a match is found for a destination network, the router passes the packet to the

path indicated by the entry in the routing table.

The entry in the path list contains the ISDN phone number(s) of the target router. The router sends

the number to the ISDN port for the call to be connected. The WAN path is established, and the

data is sent to the remote unit. At the receiving end, the process operates in the reverse order, from

the ISDN port to the LAN port.

Features

The Model RT328/RH348 router is a ﬂexible, high-performance, easy-to-use router that provides a

cost-effective solution for intelligent networking access across an ISDN line. With minimum

setup, you can install and use the router within minutes to meet a wide variety of networking

requirements.
