Reference Guide for the Model RT210/RT211 ISDN Routers

Menus and Commands 4-9

• MinBandwidth (bps)

The minimum bandwidth that should be allocated to this path. A value of 0 initially uses

the single channel capacity. Other values may cause the unit to make additional switched

calls until the requirement is met for this path. It is advisable to use multiples of 64,000

bps for ISDN connections.

Default: 0

• MaxBandwidth (bps)

The maximum bandwidth that can be used by this path. A value of 0 deﬁnes no upper

limit. A value of 64,000 prevents the use of both channels for this path.

Default: 0

• DemandThreshold (%)

The percentage utilization of the path at which an additional call should be made. The

DEMAND THRESHOLD is disabled if given a value of 0.

• ThresholdPd (sec)

This is the time-out period after which an idle switched call is automatically disconnected.

Default: 10

• IdleThreshold(%)

The percentage utilization below which a switched call is determined to be idle.

Default: 0

• Bandwidth Mode

Permanent or OnDemand

Default: OnDemand

• AllowRIP

Enables IP RIP (Routing Information Protocol) in RIP1, RIP1 Compatibility, or RIP2

mode. Disables RIP if set to NONE. RIP1 Compatibility mode is a subset of RIP2 that

also supports and advertises networks with variable-length netmasks.

Default: None
