Parameter Description
ISDN Cost
Reduction
Timers Note: Only applicable if your ISDN connection
protocol is Multilink PPP.
Note: You must activate BACP/BOD before
setting the timers.
Set these timers if your ISDN Service Provider
charges one rate for the first interval of time on-
line (a fixed period, for example the first 5
minutes), and a different rate for subsequent
time on-line. Setting these timers ensures your
second B-channel is used most economically.
Initial Billing Interval: Specifies the length of
the first billing interval (in seconds). For
example, if your provider changes a fixed $X for
the first 5 minutes, enter 300.
Note: Setting the timer to 0 disables it. The
Billing Interval timer is also disabled.
Default: 60 seconds.
Billing Interval: Specifies the increments your
Service Provider uses to bill subsequent usage of
your ISDN line (usage after the initial Billing
Interval expires). For example if your Provider
charges $Y per minute for each minute
following the Initial Billing Interval, enter 60.
Note: Setting the timer to 0 disables it. The
Initial Billing Interval remains in effect.
Default: 60 seconds.
Data Over
Voice Note: Available on North American models
only.
Specifies Data Over Voice Bearer Capability as
the outgoing call type.
If voice calls are less expensive than data calls in
your tariff area, you can select this option. DOV
calls are data calls made over a BRI line using
Voice Bearer Capability.
For DOV to work, the remote device you are
connecting must support incoming DOV calls.
