Call scheduling screens
With call scheduling (applicable for PPPoA or PPPoE encapsulation only), you
can dictate when a remote node is to be called and for how long.
Call scheduling introduction
Using the call scheduling feature, the BCM50a Integrated Router can manage a
remote node and dictate when a remote node is to be called and for how long. This
feature is similar to the scheduler in a video cassette recorder (you can specify a
time period for the VCR to record). Apply schedule sets in the WAN IP screen .
Lower numbered sets take precedence over higher numbered sets, thereby
avoiding scheduling conflicts. For example, if sets 1, 2, 3, and 4 are applied in the
remote node, set 1 takes precedence over set 2, 3, and 4 as the BCM50a Integrated
Router, by default, applies the lowest numbered set first. Set 2 takes precedence
over sets 3 and 4.
You can design up to 12 schedule sets. You can apply up to four schedule sets for
a remote node.
