Connect Mode
In Connect Mode, the PremierWave XC continues to attempt an outgoing connection on t he
network, until established. If the connection attempt fails or the connect ion drops, then it retries
after a timeout. The remote node on the network must listen for the Connect Mode ’s connection.
For Connect Mode to function, it must be enabled, have a remote station (n ode) configured, and
a remote port configured (TCP or UDP). When established, Connect Mode is always on. Enter
the remote station as an IP address or DNS name. The PremierWave XC will not make a
connection unless it can resolve the address.
For Connect Mode using UDP, the PremierWave XC accepts packets from any device on the
network. It will send packets to the last device that sent it packets.
Note: The Port in Connect Mode is not the same port configured in Accept Mode.
The TCP keepalive time is the time in which proves are periodically sent to the other end of the
connection. This ensures the other side is still connected.

Tunnel Connect
Mode Settings Description
Mode Sets the method to be used to attempt a connection to a remote host or device.
Choices are:
Always = a connection is attempted until one is made. If the connection gets
disconnected, the PremierWave XC retries until it makes a connection.
Disable = an outgoing connection is never attempted. (default)
Local Port Enter an alternative Local Port. The Local Port is set to <Random> by default but can
be overridden. Blank the field to restore the default.
Host 1 Click on the displayed information to expand it for editing. If <None> is displayed,
clicking it will allow you to configure a new host. At least one Host is required to enable
Connect Mode as this information is necessary to connect to that host.
Reconnect Timer Sets the value of the reconnect timeout (in milliseconds) for outgoing connections
established by the device. Valid range is 1 to 65535 milliseconds. Default is 15000.
