Check WAN | Configuration of this field is optional. If you do not enter an IP address here, the Prestige |
IP Address | will use the default gateway IP address. Configure this field to test your Prestige's WAN |
| accessibility. Type the IP address of a reliable nearby computer (for example, your ISP's |
| DNS server address). If you are using PPTP or PPPoE Encapsulation, type "0.0.0.0" to |
| configure the Prestige to check the PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit) or PPTP tunnel. |
|
|
Fail Tolerance | Type the number of times your Prestige may attempt and fail to connect to the Internet |
| before traffic is forwarded to the backup gateway. |
|
|
Period | Type the number of seconds for the Prestige to wait between checks to see if it can |
(seconds) | connect to the WAN IP address (Check WAN IP Address field) or default gateway. |
| Allow more time if your destination IP address handles lots of traffic. |
|
|
Timeout | Type the number of seconds for your Prestige to wait for a ping response from the IP |
(seconds) | Address in the Check WAN IP Address field before it times out. The WAN connection is |
| considered "down" after the Prestige times out the number of times specified in the Fail |
| Tolerance field. Use a higher value in this field if your network is busy or congested. |
Apply | Click Apply to save your changes back to the Prestige. |
