 Posted: Mon Apr 17, 2006 4:41 am Post subject: DDR Prevent modem redialing after link failure |
 |
|
Hi all,
I have a modem configured to access the Internet via async interface.
I'm using DDR and was wondering if there is a way to limit the number
of redial attempts, if the link fails? My ISP only allows 4 hour
sessions, so I don't want my modem redialing every 4 hours.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Ben. |

check out the " dialer persistent max-attempts" command
interface dialer 0
dialer persistent max-attempts 2 |

Thanks for those tips guys. I had a look at the dialer redial
function, but still no luck. I tried setting the redial to 0 using:
dialer redial interval 5 attempts 0
but get the message: %cannot apply attemps as 0 when re-enable timeout
is not configured.
Setting the re-enable feature reenables the interface after the timer
expires and so the interface redials... I'm not doing dialer
persistent, btw.
There must be a way to completely shutdown the dialer interface, if the
connection fails?
Thanks again,
Ben. |
