Selecting a dial-up link as the primary WAN connection
Selecting a dial-up link as the primary WAN connection
The dial-up WAN connection supports PPP only. Business Communications Manager supports
ISDN dial-up PPPoE dial-up WAN connections.
Setting a dial-up connection as the primary WAN connection means that the Business
Communications Manager default route is to the dial-up connection. If the dial-up WAN
connection is configured as dial-on-demand, any traffic across the dial-up WAN connection
causes the link to be established. Also, if there is no traffic crossing the connection, the link shuts
down automatically after a time out.
Note: When you configure your primary WAN connection to use a dial-up WAN
connection, no backup WAN connection is available.
