Key Settings:
Label Description
Backup Select the method that the Prestige uses to check the DSL connection.
Type
Select DSL Link to have the Prestige check if the connection to the DSLAM is up. Select ICMP to have the
Prestige periodically ping the IP addresses configured in the Check WAN IP Address fields.
Check Configure this field to test your Prestige's WAN accessibility. Type the IP address of a reliable nearby
WAN IP computer (for example, your ISP's DNS server address).
Address1-3
If you select ICMP in the Backup Type field, you must configure at least one IP address here.
When using a WAN backup connection, the Prestige periodically pings the addresses configured here and
uses the other WAN backup connection (if configured) if there is no response.
Fail Type the number of times (2 recommended) that your Prestige may ping the IP addresses configured in the
Tolerance Check WAN IP Address fields without getting a response before switching to a WAN backup connection (or
a different WAN backup connection).
Recovery When the Prestige is using a lower priority connection (usually a WAN backup connection), it periodically
Interval checks to whether or not it can use a higher priority connection.
Type the number of seconds (30 recommended) for the Prestige to wait between checks. Allow more time if
your destination IP address handles lots of traffic.
Timeout Type the number of seconds (3 recommended) for your Prestige to wait for a ping response from one of the
IP addresses in the Check WAN IP Address fields before timing out the request. The WAN connection is
considered "down" after the Prestige times out the number of times specified in the Fail Tolerance field. Use
a higher value in this field if your network is busy or congested.
