remote settimer

This command is used for dial-up connections and other connections that behave like
dial-up connections, such as L2TP and PPPoE sessions. The command sets the
length of the timeout period before disconnection.
When the connection has had no traffic for the timeout period, the channel is
deallocated. A channel is re-allocated when it is needed.
A timeout period is desirable if your service provider charges by the hour. However,
the connection has to wait a few seconds each time a channel is re-allocated.
NOTE:
The timeout period set by this command is not effective if a remote setMinLines
command has changed the minlines value from its default (0) to 1 or 2
