for n seconds [see above]. If the link is to remain always active, enter 0 in this field.

MRU: This field sets the Maximum Receive Unit for the DSL connection. It is a negotiated value that

connection. This feature will force all TCP traffic to conform with PPP MRU by changing TCP
Maximum Segment Size to PPP MRU.
