DIRECTION

TX AND RX (def)

TX ONLY

Allows the direction at which RIP advertise- ments are sent and listened to be specified.

RIP advertisements are periodically transmitted and are listened to on this port.

RIP advertisements are periodically transmitted but are not listened to on this port.

RX ONLY	RIP advertisements are not transmitted on
	this port, but are listened.
TRIGGERED	When set to YES, only IP RIP updates are sent
	when the routing table has changed and learned
	routes not “aged.” When set to No (def), updates
	are sent periodically.
RETAIN	When this Connection List entry is disconnected
	and this parameter is set to YES, all routes
	learned from this WAN connection are retained
	and their routing interface is set to idle. This per-
	mits dial-on-demand to occur using this profile
	for any IP network that might have been adver-
	tised by the particular PPP peer. The idle routes
	can be flushed or “zombied” from the routing ta-
	ble if a manual hangup is performed when this
	WAN connection is not active. When this Con-
	nection List entry is disconnected and this pa-
	rameter is set to NO (def), routes learned from
	this session are “zombied” and are not retained.

PPP

Use this menu to configure PPP settings.

VJ COMPRESSION	When this item is set to ON, the TA 544 will per-
	form TCP/IP header compression known as Van
	Jacobson compression to the PPP peer. Normal-
	ly, this is not necessary over ISDN connections
	and can be set to Off (def) to disable it.
MAX CONFIGURE	This value is the number of unanswered config-
	uration-requests that should be transmitted be-
	fore giving up on a call. The possible values are
	5, 10 (def), 15 and 20.
MAX TIMER	This value is the number of seconds to wait be-
	tween unanswered configuration-requests. The
	possible values are 1 sec, 2 secs (def), 3 secs, 5
	secs and 10 secs.
