Policy For Packets From Unused Gateways
This policy controls how packets from the currently unused gateway(s) should be treated. The packet can be allowed (subject to the rest of the configuration) or discarded.
The Discard IP packets selection means that the Telecommuting Module ignores the IP packets without replying that the packet did not arrive.
The Allow IP packets selection makes the Telecommuting Module use the rest of the con- figuration to decide if the packet should be allowed.
Gateway Reference Hosts
The gateway reference hosts are used by the Telecommuting Module to check if the gateways are alive. For each reference host, test ping packets are sent, using the different gateways.
Reference hosts are not needed if you have entered a single default gateway.
