3. Dial-On-Broadcast - This field is necessary for the Prestige on
the caller side LAN. When set to Yes, any broadcasts coming
from the LAN will trigger the Prestige to make a call to that
Remote Node. If it is set to No, the Prestige will not make the
outgoing call.
4. Ethernet Addr Timeout (min) - In this field, enter the time
(number of minutes) that you wish the Prestige to retain the
Ethernet Addr information in its internal tables while the line is
down. If this information is retained, then the Prestige will not
have to re-negotiate the protocol and recompile the tables when
the line is brought back up.
