7.
Assign the physical interface
to a dialer bundle.
Configuring attributes for a dialup interface
Use the following attributes when configuring a dialup interface to improve dial efficiency.
•
Link idle-timeout timer—Starts upon establishment of a link. When the timer expires, DDR
disconnects the link.
•
Holddown timer—Starts upon disconnection of a link. The call attempt to bring up this link can
be made only after the timer expires. This timer prevents a remote stored program controlled
switch (SPCS) from being overloaded.
•
Compete-idle timer—Starts if all physical interfaces are unavailable when DDR initiates a new
call. When the amount of idle time of a link reaches the compete-idle timer setting, the link
disconnects.
•
Wait-carrier timer—Limits the amount of time DDR waits for a connection to be established for
a call. A wait-carrier timer starts when a call is placed. If the connection is not established before
the timer expires, DDR terminates the call.
•
Buffer queue length—Length of a buffer queue. With a buffer queue, the dialup interface
buffers the packet until a connection is available for packet sending. If no connection is
available when a dialup interface without a buffer queue receives a packet, the dialup interface
drops the packet.
To configure attributes for a dialup interface:
