ASYNC ROUTER AR-P, AR-5, AND SYNC ROUTER REFERENCE MANUAL

Description

The dialup command configures the dialup parameters for interface iface.

Subcommands and parameters

dialup iface client [dummy secs]

Sets the modem network to client mode. A network configured for client mode must have the dialup client command present in the network configuration. After setting a network to client mode, the phone number, idle, and quota fields are set to zero. When a client logs on, these fields are set to the values specified by the client account.

iface modem0-4, sync0

[dummy secs]—Dummyis a nonfunctioning argument. Sets the time in seconds before the Router hangs

up on the interface iface, when there is no traffic on that interface.

dialup iface demand phone# [secs]

Dials the phone number and then monitors the connection. If the remote device is down, and there is output queued, Router dials again. If no output has been queued in secs seconds, Router disconnects and resets the modem to ensure it is down. If a backup phone number is specified with dialup backup it is attempted if the primary phone number is busy or does not answer.

iface modem0-4, sync0

phone#—The primary phone number of the remote device you want to monitor. A backup phone number can be defined using the dialup backup subcommand.

secs The amount of time the Router waits for the remote device you are monitoring to connect and queue responses before switching back to the primary number.

dialup iface demand_backoff phone# [secs]

Operates similarly to the demand subcommand except that no connections are attempted for two minutes after a failed call attempt. One end should be configured demand and the other end should be configured demand_backoff. This prevents a deadlock if both sides are trying to prepare for a call at the same time. The configuration procedure automatically designates one side of a connection as demand and one side as demand_backoff.
