Connect on Demand Select this option if your ISP charges based on the
amount of time that you are connected. When you
select this option, the Internet connection is on only
when traffic is present. If the connection is idle—
that is, no traffic is flowing—the connection is
closed. If you click Connect on Demand, enter the
number of minutes after which the connection
shuts off in the Max Idle Time field.
Keep Alive When you select this option, the Internet
connection is always on. In the redial period field,
enter the number of seconds after which the
Cisco RV215W attempts to reconnect if it is
disconnected.
Authentication Type Choose the authentication type:
Auto-negotiation—The server sends a
configuration request specifying the security
algorithm set on it. Then, the Cisco RV215W sends
back authentication credentials with the security
type sent earlier by the server.
PAP—The Cisco RV215W uses the Password
Authentication Protocol (PAP) to connect to the ISP.
CHAP—The Cisco RV215W uses the Challenge
Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) when
connecting with the ISP.
MS-CHAP or MS-CHAPv2—The Cisco RV215W
uses Microsoft Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol when connecting with the
ISP.
