ISDN Dialing parameters
The value in this text box takes precedence over the previous parameter when another PPP
instance that is usually inhibited by this one is connected. This parameter typically reduces the
connection retry rate when a lower priority PPP instance is connected.
Wait s seconds after power-up before activating this interface
The value in this text box is the initial delay that the router applies before activating the PPP
instance after power-up. After the initial power-up delay the normal always-on activation
timers apply. If set to zero, no delay will be applied.
Control when this interface can connect using Time band n
These two controls, the check box and drop-down list determine whether the Time Band
function should be applied to this interface. Checking the checkbox enables the functionality
and the desired time band instance is selected from the drop-down list. Time Band
functionality is explained in the Timebands section.
Keep this interface up for at least s seconds
The value in this textbox specifies the minimum period that the PPP interface should remain
available. This means that even if the link becomes inactive before this period expires, the
connection will remain open.
Close this interface
After s seconds
The value in this text box specifies the maximum time that the link remains active in any one
session. After this time, the link will be deactivated.
If it has been up for m minutes in a day
The router deactivates the PPP instance after it has been active for the value specified in this
text box.
If the link has been idle for s seconds
The router deactivates this interface after the time specified in this text box if it detects that
the link has not passed any traffic for that period.
Alternative idle timer for static routes s seconds
The value in this text box specifies an alternative inactivity timeout for use in conjunction with
the Make PPP n interface use the alternative idle timeout when this route becomes
available parameter on the Configuration – Network > IP Routing/Forwarding > Static
Routes > Routes n > Advanced web page. This timeout is only used until the PPP instance
next deactivates. After that the normal timeout value is used.
If the link has not received any packets for s seconds
The value in this text box specifies the amount of time that the router will wait without
receiving any PPP packets before disconnecting. The timer is reset with each received PPP
packet.
If the negotiation is not complete in s seconds
The value in this text box specifies the maximum time (in seconds) allowed for the PPP
negotiation to complete. If negotiations have not completed within this period, the interface is
deactivated.
