Connection Profiles

The line backup feature allows you to configure a complete Connection Profile for the backup por t, just as you
do for your primar y WAN connection. In this way profiles are associated with a par ticular inter face. The profile
should reflect the por t it is associated with. It should have switched characteristics for the backup por t.

For instructions on creating a Connection Profile see

“Creating a New Connection Profile” on page 2-24

.

To associate this Connection Profile with your backup por t inter face, choose Backup from the Inter face Por t
pop-up menu and press Return.

If you choose Backup, Telco Options becomes visible. The Telco Options screen allows you to set the
parameters for the modem connection.
