8-6 Firmware User Guide
• From the Dial pop-up menu, you can choose whether to Dial Out Only, Dial In Only, or Dial In/Out (default).
• Dialing Prefix: If you are connected to a Centrex or PBX phone system that requires you to dial a prefix
number (such as “9” for an outside line), enter it here.
• You can add the Number to Dial and an Alternate Site to Dial, if available.
• You can toggle Dial on Demand to Yes or No. This allows the router to determine whether or not to dial the
backup number when there is traffic that needs to be transmitted or received.
• You can set the Idle Timeout (seconds) to tear down the connection after some specified period of
inactivity.
• You can also toggle Callback to No or Yes. In most cases, since this is a backup connection, you can leave
this set to the default No.
• In some cases, your ser vice provider or corporate office may use the CompuSer ve Login protocol. If so,
toggle CompuServe Login Enabled to Yes. Other wise, leave the default No.
When enabled, CompuSer ve Login requires that you enter a CompuServe Host Name, a CompuServe User
Name, and a CompuServe Password. These options become visible only if you enable CompuSer ve Login.
Press Escape. You are returned to the Add Connection Profile screen.
Select COMMIT, and press Return. Your backup Connection Profile will be created and enabled.
