CN8600 User Manual
PPP online time specifies how long you want the ISP connection to last before terminating the session and hanging up the modem. A setting of zero means it is always on line.
Emergency Dial Out: If the CN8600 gets disconnected from the network, or the network goes down, this function puts the switch on line via the ISP dial up connection.
If you choose PPP stays online until network recovery, the PPP connection to the ISP will last until the network comes back up or the switch reconnects to it.
If you choose PPP online time, the connection to the ISP will terminate after the amount of time that you specify is up. A setting of zero means it is always on line.
Dial Out Mail Configuration: This section provides email notification of problems that occur on the devices connected to the CN8600's ports.
Note: This email notification differs from the one configured under SMTP Settings in that it uses the ISP mail server rather than the internal company’s mail server.
