Global parameters
Figure 31: Modem Outgoing Global setup page
Control Description
Dial and connection timeout
Time allowed for the whole establishment of the PPP link to be up. This means modem call,
modem negotiation, PPP negotiation and logon. This time includes all trials on each server.
This is thus a global time.
Enable compression
Enable the compression negotiation request when an outgoing call occurs. This includes all
compression modes known by the eWON PPP engine (Van Jacobson, header
compression,…).
Delay between dialout retries
In case of an unsuccessful attempt to establish the outgoing communication, then eWON will
retry to establish it again. This parameter will allow you to define the amount of time the
eWON will wait to try and establish again the outgoing action.
Idle time before hanging up
eWON will hang up after this amount of time if no data transfer occurs on the PPP link
between the eWON (any type of PPP packet) and a remote host (Computer).
Max outgoing call duration
The maximum amount of time of the outgoing call. When this amount of time is reached, then
the eWON stops the PPP communication.
Hang up if no outgoing action
after
When a PPP link is triggered by an outgoing action (not by DialOnDemand), you can force the
interruption of the line immediately after the actions (set 0) or let the PPP active for an amount
of time (set >0). The PPP link will be shut down after the x minutes even if transfers are in
progress.
The Idle time before hanging up is always active.
Select next server in case of
error
When the call to a server failed, you can choose the behavior of the next call.
eWON will be configured to:
• Use last valid server
• Always return to server 1
• Use only server 1
• Use only server 2
