COMMAND

DESCRIPTION

[no] network-selection {autohome}

Home network is the network to which you are originally subscribed.

 

Home has the 3G device connect only to the home network. If the

 

home network is down, the ZyWALL's 3G Internet connection is also

 

unavailable.

 

Auto is the default setting and allows the 3G device to connect to a

 

network to which you are not subscribed when necessary, for example

 

when the home network is down or another 3G base station's signal is

 

stronger. This is recommended if you need continuous Internet

 

connectivity. If you select this, you may be charged using the rate of a

 

different network.

 

 

[no] budget active

Sets a monthly limit for the user account of the installed 3G card. You

 

can set a limit on the total traffic and/or call time. The ZyWALL takes

 

the actions you specified when a limit is exceeded during the month.

 

Use the no command to disable budget control.

[no] budget time active <1..672>

Sets the amount of time (in hours) that the 3G connection can be

 

used within one month. If you change the value, the ZyWALL resets

 

the statistics. Use the no command to disable time budget control.

[no] budget data active {download-

Sets how much downstream and/or upstream data (in Mega bytes)

uploaddownloadupload} <1..100000>

can be transmitted via the 3G connection within one month.

 

download: set a limit on the downstream traffic (from the ISP to the

 

ZyWALL).

 

upload: set a limit on the upstream traffic (from the ZyWALL to the

 

ISP).

 

download-upload: set a limit on the total traffic in both directions.

 

If you change the value, the ZyWALL resets the statistics.

 

Use the no command to disable data budget control.

budget reset-day <0..31>

Sets the date on which the ZyWALL resets the budget every month. If

 

the date you selected is not available in a month, such as 30th or

 

31st, the ZyWALL resets the budget on the last day of the month.

 

 

budget reset-counters

Resets the time and data budgets immediately. The count starts over

 

with the 3G connection’s full configured monthly time and data

 

budgets. This does not affect the normal monthly budget restart.

 

 

budget {loglog-alert}[recursive

Sets the ZyWALL to create a log (log) or an alert log (log-alert) when

<1..65535>]

the time or data limit is exceeded. You can also specify how often

 

(from 1 to 65535 minutes) to generate a log or an alert.

no budget log [recursive]

Sets the ZyWALL to not create a log when the time or data limit is

 

exceeded. Specify recursive to have the ZyWALL only create a log

 

one time when the time or data limit is exceeded.

 

 

budget new-connection {allowdisallow}

Sets to permit (allow) or drop/block (disallow) new 3G connections

 

when the time or data limit is exceeded.

budget current-connection {keepdrop}

Sets to maintain the existing 3G connection (keep) or disconnect it

 

(drop) when the time or data limit is exceeded. You cannot set budget

 

new-connection to allow and budget current-connection to drop at

 

the same time.

 

If you set budget new-connection to disallow and budget current-

 

connection to keep, the ZyWALL allows you to transmit data using the

 

current connection, but you cannot build a new connection if the

 

existing connection is disconnected.
