Description In normal cases, a POSPAD connection is disconnected upon completion of the
transaction on it. The likelihood exists however, that a POSPAD connection is still
present upon completion of the transaction on it.
To prevent idle PAD connections from occupying resources, configure an idle-clear
timer on the POSPAD router. This allows the router to automatically terminate an idle
PAD connection upon expiration of the timer.
