Chapter 29 WAN and Dial Backup Setup

after you enter the password, then you should create a third set to match the final “PPP...” but without a “Send” string. Otherwise, the ZyWALL will start PPP prematurely right after sending your password to the server.

If there are errors in the script and it gets stuck at a set for longer than the “Dial Timeout” in menu 2 (default 60 seconds), the ZyWALL will timeout and drop the line. To debug a script, go to Menu 24.4 to initiate a manual call and watch the trace display to see if the sequence of messages and prompts from the server differs from what you expect.

Move the cursor to the field Edit Filter Sets in menu 11.2, and then press [SPACE BAR] to set the value to Yes. Press [ENTER] to open Menu 11.2.4 - Remote Node Filter.

Use menu 11.2.4 to specify the filter set(s) to apply to the incoming and outgoing traffic between this remote node and the ZyWALL to prevent certain packets from triggering calls. You can specify up to four filter sets separated by commas, for example, 1, 5, 9, 12, in each filter field. Note that spaces are accepted in this field. Please refer to Chapter 38 on page 541 for more information on defining the filters.
