ZyXEL Communications 153X user manual Leased Line Support, Dial-up Backup for Leased Line

Prestige 153/153X WAN Bridge/Routers

4.2Leased Line Support

A leased line provides a connection that is always up without dialing and modem negotiation, which can take tens of second. The WAN port on the Prestige allows you to connect a leased line modem (async). Obviously, the Connection Type of the WAN port must be selected as [Leased] in Menu 2.1 - Async WAN Port Setup.

Please note that synchronous device support is available only on WAN port 1 and 2 of Prestige 153X.

4.2.1 Dial-up Backup for Leased Line

If you have a dial-up line in addition to the leased line, you can use the dial-up line as a backup for the leased line in the event that the leased line is down. When the leased line connection drops, your Prestige will select an available modem to place a phone call to establish a backup connection. When the leased line is up again, your Prestige will drop the backup link.
