Configuring the Location Table
8-4 PortMaster Configuration Guide
On-Demand
Dial-on-demand connections to selected locations can save money because the
telephone line is used only when traffic needs to be transmitted. The dial-on-demand
configuration can also be used as a backup for other types of connections such as those
using high-speed synchronous lines. A dial-on-demand connection usually has the idle
timer set so that the connection is closed when no longer needed.
Note – When configuring a dial-on-demand location, be careful not to have the
on-demand location be the route to the loghost, RADIUS server, RADIUS accounting
server, or any host for a port using the PortMaster login or device service, unless you
understand the effect of these services upon dial-on-demand.
If routing for a dial-on-demand location is set to on , listen, or broadcast , the
PortMaster dials out to that location when it boots, to update routing information. The
PortMaster hangs up when the idle timer expires because RIP traffic does not reset the
idle timer.
To configure a location to support a dial-on-demand connection, use the following
command:
Command> set location Locname on_demand
Continuous
To establish a continuous dial-out connection, you must set the location type to
continuous . In this configuration, the PortMaster dials out after it boots and establishes
a network connection to the specified location. If the connection is dropped for any
reason, the PortMaster dials out again and establishes the connection again after a
30-second wait.
To configure a location to support a continuous connection, use the following
command:
Command> set location Locname continuous
Manual Dial-Out
Use manual dial-out to test the connection or if you want the connection to be
established only when you or a network callback user requests. You should test any
connection before configuring it as a continuous or on-demand location.
