CONFIGURING YOUR ROUTER
timeout. You should determine the line charges in order to optimize Call Timeout.
Step 13: Select Bandwidth on Demand (BOD) to be on or off.
Bandwidth on Demand limits the use of both
The BOD Level (BPS) can be between 1 - 64,000 bps. The BOD Level must be set if Bandwidth on Demand is turned on. This determines the point where both channels will be activated by the router. You must decide what this number should be, based on the ISDN connect charges and the cost of long distance line charges.
Enter the BOD Time (SEC), which is the time in seconds that the selected router will allow the second
Step 14: Set Max Call Attempts.
Type in a number for Max Call Attempts, which is the maximum number of calls the selected router should make to the remote router when trying to establish a link. For reasons such as call collisions (when both routers try to call each other simultaneously), some routers may not pick up on an initial call but may pick up on a subsequent call.
