Connect/Disconnect LED Indicator
The indicator displays one of the three different statuses.
Illuminates solid red to indicate that the connection between the PC
port and modem port is logically or physically disconnected. No
transmission of user data can pass between the computer and the cable
or xDSL modem ports. The computer is disconnected from the net-
work. The computer’s IP assignment will be retained or released
depending on the selection of the mode switch.
Illuminates solid green to indicate that the connection between the PC
port and the modem port is connected. Only pre-inspected valid user
session data packets are permitted to pass between the PC port and the
Modem port. Both AlphaGap™ and RPA are enabled. Your
AlphaShield™ connect/disconnect indicator must be green to establish
a connection to the Internet or network.
Flashing green to indicate that the impending logical or physical dis-
connect 15 minute inactivity timer value is about to expire. This
means that no user session activity has taken place for the timer value
and the current session connection is 30 seconds away from a logical
or physical disconnect. Only user activity, such as clicking onto a
web link or by depressing the connect button at the top of the
AlphaShield™, will reset the inactivity timer and maintain the
user session.
