CONFIGURING YOUR ROUTER
Call Type Setup
Due to the varieties and complexities of networks and applications, it is the responsibility of the network administrator to determine the cost of all line charges, or any other charges which may be incurred, resulting from the use of the OverLAN Ethernet/ISDN router. Such charges are not the responsibility of Ringdale.
Call Type Setup appears under the Setup Tab > Call Setup Tab for the properties for a router.
Call Mode: Select from options for Call by Command, Call on Demand, and Permanent Channels.
Select Call by Command Only when you want calls to be manually placed. In this setup, the router cannot place calls automatically.
Select Call on Demand to have the router place calls automatically when data is received for the remote network.
When one or both
On Demand Call Timeout: Type a number representing the time (in seconds) the selected router will keep a line up when there is no activity while in Call on Demand mode. A value of 0 will be interpreted as infinity, which means a call will never timeout. You should determine the line charges in order to optimize On Demand Call Timeout.
Allow Broadcasts to open an On Demand Channel: Enabling this option allows On Demand Channels to be activated automatically whenever general network broadcasts are received by the router.
