Dial-On-Query
This field is for the Prestige on the server side. Your Prestige can spoof
a response to a server’s WatchDog request after the connection is
dropped. In this field, type in the time (number of minutes) that you want
your Prestige to spoof the WatchDog response.
This field indicates the amount of time that you want your Prestige to
maintain the SAP and RIP entries learned from this remote node in its
internal tables after the connection has been dropped. If the information
is retained, then your Prestige will not have to get the SAP information
when the line is brought back up. Enter the time (number of minutes) in
this field.
This field is necessary for your Prestige on the client side. When set to
Yes, any Get Service SAP or RIP broadcasts will trigger your Prestige to
make a call to that remote node.
