WAN Configuration 2-19

Demand-Allowed, meaning that this schedule will permit a demand call on the line.

Demand-Blocked, meaning that this schedule will prevent a demand call on the line.

Periodic, meaning that the connection is retried several times during the scheduled time.

Random Retry, which operates as follows:

First, it will wait 0 to 60 seconds before starting, then it will try three times to bring the connection up as quickly as possible;

Second, on each successive retry after these first three attempts it will wait a random number of seconds between zero and a user-specified maximum.

Should the connection come up, and subsequently go down, the Scheduled Connection will start over with three retries. Switched connections have a variable redial back-off time depending on the interface type. Consequently, the first three attempts for such connections will be slower. Once the connection is up it will be forced to remain up.

If How Often is set to Weekly, the item directly below How Often reads Set Weekly Schedule. If How Often is set to Once Only, the item directly below How Often reads Set Once-Only Schedule.
