Operating modes and functions
ELSA LANCOM DSL/10 Office

The device indicates this status with a flashing power/msg LED and in the LANmonitor.
When the limit of a budget is reached, all open connections that were initiated by the
router itself will be shut down automatically. The budgets will not be reset to permit the
establishment of connections until the current period has elapsed. Needless to say, the
administrator can
—
in LANmonitor
—
reset the budgets at any time if required!
The charge and time monitoring of the router functions can be disabled by entering a
budget of 0 units or 0 minutes.
Settings in the charge module
The interface settings for the
ELSA LANconfig
can be found in the 'Management'
configuration section on the 'Charges' tab, or under
/Setup/Charge-module
during telnet or terminal sessions.
The current charge and connect-time information is retained when rebooting (e.g. when
installing new firmware) is not lost until the unit is switched off. All of the time values
indicated here are in minutes.
xDSL connections
Data communications between
ELSA LANCOM DSL/10 Office
and the Internet run over
xDSL or cable connections. Initially the router modules only determine the remote station
to which a data packet is to be sent. The various parameters for all required connections
must be arranged so that a given connection can be selected and established as required.
These parameters are stored in a variety of lists, the interaction of which permits the
correct connections.
