Description of the menu options
ELSA LANCOM DSL/10 Office
R28
Setup/WAN Module/Manual Dial
This option can be used for manual connection control for testing purposes.
Connect
Parameter: Remote station’s device name (via remote configuration only).
You can use the command
Do /Setup/WAN-module/Manual-dialing/Connect to remote station
to initiate the manual establishment of a connection via remote configuration. The
remote station’s device name specified as a parameter must also be entered in the name
list with a call number.
If you attempt to establish a connection to a logical remote station for which no call
number is specified in the name list, the 'No number' error message is displayed.
Disconnect
This command allows you to release an existing connection. If a connection is released
manually, the name of a remote station may also be entered in the remote configuration.
In this case, only the connection to the remote station specified is released. If a
connection to the remote station specified does not exist, there is no further response.
However, if a remote station name is not entered, all existing connections will be
released.
Try
In this column, you can specify the number of times the verification attempt is to be
repeated. If verification fails, the connection is immediately terminated. Default: 5
Conf, Fail and
Term
These parameters may be used to influence the operation of the PPP. They are
defined and described in RFC 1661. The default values are sufficient for most remote
stations. If nothing is entered here, the values 0,0,0 appear in the display but the
default values 10, 5, 2 are still used.
These parameters can only be changed via SNMP or TFTP (using the
ELSA LANconfig
configuration program)!
Username
The user name (max. 64 characters) transmitted to the remote station during PPP
negotiation. The router identifies itself to the remote station with it.
If no user name is entered, the device name serves as the user name.
Entries are case-sensitive here.
