ASYNC ROUTER AR-P, AR-5, AND SYNC ROUTER USER’S MANUAL

You can display the current-time quota setting and the balance of outgoing connect time by entering either:

dialup interface status

or

dialup interface quota

A typical status display is:

Usage warning currently set at: 0:04:00:00 (tcp/ip)croy>

For more information, refer to the dialup command in Section 2.9 of the Reference Manual.

Use dialup status to determine the amount of dialup quota available on a particular interface. Typically, if you are averaging 1 hour of outgoing connect time per day, set your quota to 2 or 3 hours.

NOTE

Set your quota time slightly higher than the amount of time you expect to use, to ensure that legitimate connections are not disrupted.

B.2.2 HOW TO TEMPORARILY INCREASE THE TIME QUOTA

You want to set the dialup-time quota higher than normal for a day, issue the dialup quota command to reset the time quota for the current day only. For example, if you have reached your normal limit of four hours (240 minutes), and want a few more hours to complete your work, then enter the command:

dialup modem0 quota 120

This command will reset the time quota to two more hours for today, for the modem0 interface. This command also sets the limit to a total of two hours on subsequent days. After using the increased time, remember to reset the time quota back to your normal limit tomorrow.

B.2.3 USE THE ROUTERS PREDEFINED IP FILTERS

Typically, the Router can be configured to be the Internet entry point to the corporate network. All services that are defined to be reachable from the Internet are running on one public server. Other hosts (internal servers) cannot be reached from the Internet, but all local users are allowed to access servers on the Internet. When a Router is being used to provide Internet access for a corporate network, consider using the predefined IP filters to limit activities by Internet users who are ouside of your network. This list of IP filters is sometimes called an IP firewall.

There are two ways to install the predefined IP filters: during initial configuration or when executing config modify.
