T
RIGGERED
When set to
YES
, only IP RIP updates are sent
when the routing table has changed and learned
routes not “aged.” When set to No (def), updates
are sent periodically.
R
ETAIN
When this Connection List entry is disconnected
and this parameter is set to
Y
ES, all routes
learned from this WAN connection are retained
and their routing interface is set to idle. This per-
mits dial-on-demand to occur using this profile
for any IP network that might have been adver-
tised by the particular PPP peer. The idle routes
can be flushed or “zombied” from the routing ta-
ble if a manual hangup is performed when this
WAN connection is not active. When this Con-
nection List entry is disconnected and this pa-
rameter is set to
N
O (def), routes learned from
this session are “zombied” and are not retained.
VJ C
OMPRESSION
When this item is set to
ON
, the TA 544 will per-
form TCP/IP header compression known as Van
Jacobson compression to the PPP peer. Normal-
ly, this is not necessary over ISDN connections
and can be set to Off (def) to disable it.

tween unanswered configuration-requests. The
possible values are 1 sec, 2 secs (def), 3 secs, 5
