Line Backup 7-7
Connection Profiles
The line backup feature allows you to configure a complete Connection Profile for the backup port, just as you
do for your primary WAN connection. In this way profiles are associated with a particular interface. The profile
should reflect the port it is associated with. It should have switched characteristics for the backup port.
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 port interface, choose Backup from the Interface Port
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.
