Nailed-Up Connection

A nailed-up connection is a dial-up line where the connection is always up
regardless of traffic demand. The Business Secure Router does two things when
you specify a nailed-up connection. The first is that idle timeout is disabled. The
second is that the Business Secure Router will try to bring up the connection when
turned on and whenever the connection is down. A nailed-up connection can be
very expensive for obvious reasons.
Do not specify a nailed-up connection unless your telephone company offers
flat-rate service or you need a constant connection and the cost is of no concern.
