Configure client callback options
Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2
To configure client callback options
Open Network Connections.
On the Advanced menu, click Remote Access Preferences.
On the Callback tab, do one of the following:
If you do not want to use callback, click No callback.
If you want to decide whether to use callback at the time you connect, click Ask me during dialing when the server offers.
If you want to consistently use callback, click Always call me back at the number(s) below, and select the modem or device you want to be called back.
If Phone number is blank for the device you have selected, click Edit, and then type the number.
If you want to remove a modem or device from the list of possible callback devices, click the modem or device, and then click Delete.
Notes
To open Network Connections, click Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click Network Connections.
Your system administrator can override any callback settings that you configure. Through server settings, the administrator can deny the use of callback, allow you to set callback options, or require callback to a particular number. Contact your system administrator to determine your callback options.
To use callback, Link Control Protocol (LCP) extensions must be enabled.
Information about functional differences
- Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
