Connect on Demand
This function enables the auto-dialing function to be used in a PPPoE dial
connection. When the client port attempts to connect with the Internet, the
device will automatically make a dial connection. If the line has been idle for a
period of time, the system will break the connection automatically. (The default
time for automatic break-off resulting from no packet transmissions is five
minutes).
Keep Alive
This function enables the PPPoE dial connection to keep connected, and to
automatically redial if the line is disconnected. It also enables a user to set up a
time for redialing. The default is 30 seconds.
Enable Line-Dropped
Scheduling
The WAN disconnection schedule will be activated by checking this option. In
some areas, there is a time limitation for WAN connection service. For
example: the optical fiber service will be disconnected from 0:00 am to 6:00 am.
Although there is a standby system in the device, at the moment of WAN
disconnection, all the external connections that go through this WAN will be
disconnected too. Only after the disconnected lines are reconnected can they
go through the standby system to connect with the Internet. Therefore, to avoid
a huge number of disconnections, users can activate this function to arrange
new connections through another WAN to the Internet. In this way, the effect of
any disconnection can be minimized.
Line-Dropped Period
Input the time rule for the disconnection of this WAN service.
Line-Dropped
Scheduling
Input how long the WAN service may be disconnected before the newly added
connections should go through another WAN to connect with the Internet.
Link Backup Interface
Select another WAN port as link backup when port binding is configured. Users
should select the port that employs the same ISP.
Shared- Circuit WAN
environment
