Hayes Microcomputer Products DIVA T/A ISDN manual

Parameter	Description
Enable	Note: Only applicable if your ISDN
BACP/BOD	connection protocol is Multilink PPP.
(Bandwidth	Activates the DIVA T/A’s automatic traffic
Allocation	monitor for Multilink PPP Connections.
Control	When activated, this function monitors the
Protocol/	send-and-receive traffic volume, and opens or
Bandwidth on	closes your second B-channel as the traffic
	volume warrants.
Demand)
	Activate this function to ensure that two B-
	channels are never active when one is
	sufficient, thus reducing the chargeable time
	payable to your ISDN provider.
	Note: Be sure to activate the Cost Reduction
	Timers to avoid numerous first interval
	charges. If you select BACP, but do not set
	the Cost Reduction Timers, you could incur
	unnecessary expense as your second B-
	channel might open and close frequently,
	costing you the first-interval amount each
	time the second B-channel connects.
	Default: BACP/BOD disabled
Initial Billing	Note: Only applicable if your ISDN
Interval	connection protocol is Multilink PPP.
Billing Interval	Note: You must activate BACP/BOD before
	setting the timers.
	Set these timers if your ISDN Service
	Provider charges one rate for the first interval
	of time on-line (a fixed period, for example
	the first 5 minutes), and a different rate for
	subsequent time on-line. Setting these timers
	ensures your second B-channel is used most
	economically.
	Initial Billing Interval: Specifies the length
	of the first billing interval (in seconds). For
	example, if your provider changes a fixed $X
	for the first 5 minutes enter 300.
	Note: Setting the timer to 0 disables it. The
	Billing Interval timer is also, effectively
	disabled.
