An explanation of the items on the Dial Back page is given in the table below:
Item
Action
ISP Settings
1. Provide a name for the dial out connection (optional).
2. Specify the telephone number, account name (username), and
password that you use to connect to your ISP.
Dial Out Schedule This entry sets up the times you want the CC2000 to dial out over
the ISP connection.
Every
provides a listing of fixed times: Never, Every hour, and
Every two hours.
If you select
Every two hours
(for example), the CC2000 will
start dialing out every two hours beginning at the next
complete hour (if it is now 13:10, it will start dialing at 14:00).
If you don't want the CC2000 to dial out on a fixed schedule,
select
Never
from the list.
Daily at
will dial out once a day at a specified time. Use the hh:mm
format (there is no space before or after the colon). For example:
09:18
The CC2000 will dial out every day at the time(s) you specify.
PPP online time
specifies how long you want the ISP connection
to last before terminating the session and hanging up the modem.
A setting of zero means it is always on line.
Emergency Dial
Out
If the CC2000 gets disconnected from the network, or the network
goes down, this function puts the switch online via the ISP dial up
connection.
If you set a time for
PPP online time
, the connection to the ISP will
automatically terminate after the amount of time that you specify
is up. A setting of zero means it will not automatically terminate –
it will stay online until you manually terminate the connection (with
the
Hang Up
button (at the top-right of the panel)).
You can check that the connection is valid by selecting one of the
Check server
radio buttons; keying in the appropriate information;
and clicking
Check
. The CC2000 will inform you of the results.
