Connection Control
: Select your connection control scheme from the drop list:
“Auto-reconnect (Always on)”, “Dial-on-demand” or “Connect Manually”. If
selecting “Auto-reconnect (Always on)”, this gateway will start to establish
Internet connection automatically since it’s powered on. It’s recommended to
choose this scheme if for mission critical applications to ensure Internet
connection is available all the time. If choosing “Dial-on-demand”, this gateway
won’t start to establish Internet connection until local data is going to be sent to
WAN side. During normal operation, this gateway will disconnect WAN connection
if idle time reaches the value of "Maximum Idle Time". If choosing “Connect
Manually”, this gateway won’t start to establish WAN connection until you press
“Connect” button on web UI. During normal operation, this gateway will disconnect
WAN connection if idle time reaches the value of "Maximum Idle Time".
2.
Time Schedule
: This option allows you to limit WAN connection available in a
certain time period. You can select
“Always”
option or a time schedule object
from the schedule object list that you can find them in
[System]-[Scheduling]
.
3.
MTU
: MTU refers to "Maximum Transmit Unit". Different WAN types of connection
will have different value. You can leave it with 0 (Auto) if you are not sure about this
setting.
4.
NAT:
By default, it is enabled. If you disable this option, there will be no NAT
mechanism between LAN side and WAN side.
5.
Network Monitoring:
You can do preferred settings by using this feature to
monitor the connection status of WAN interface. Checking mechanism depends
on
several parameters defined here. The network monitoring provides the WAN
interface status and then system can prevent embedded 3G/LTE modem
from some sort of auto-timeout and disconnects from the Internet after a
period of inactivity.
Enable:
Check the box to do Network Monitoring. By default, it is checked.
DNS Query/ICMP Checking
: Do the keep alive through DNS query packets or
ICMP packets.
Loading Checking
: The response time of replied keep-alive packets may
increase when WAN bandwidth is fully occupied. To avoid keep-alive
feature work abnormally, enable this option will stop sending keep-alive
packets when there are continuous incoming and outgoing data packets
passing through WAN connection. By default, the Loading Checking is
enabled.
Check Interval
: Indicate how often to send keep-alive packet.
Check Timeout
: Set allowance of time period to receive response of
keep-alive packet. If this gateway doesn’t receive response within this time
period, this gateway will record this keep alive is failed.
