Call Scheduling

Call scheduling allows you to dictate when a remote node should be called and for how long.

25.1 Introduction to Call Scheduling

The call scheduling feature allows the ZyWALL to manage a remote node and dictate when a remote node should be called and for how long. This feature is similar to the scheduler in a videocassette recorder (you can specify a time period for the VCR to record).

25.2 Configuring Call Scheduling

From the main menu, enter 26 to access Menu 26 - Schedule Setup as shown next. You can apply up to 4

schedule sets in Menu 11.1 - Remote Node Profile.

Lower numbered sets take precedence over higher numbered sets thereby avoiding scheduling conflicts. For example, if sets 1, 2, 3 and 4 are applied in the remote node, then set 1 will take precedence over set 2, 3
