Static routes
Digi TransPort User Guide 358
Mark this route as “Out of Service” in the interface fails to connect after n consecutive
attempts
Normally, if an interface is requested to connect by a route and fails to connect, the route
metric is set to 16 for the period of time specified by the Mark a static route as Out Of Service
for s seconds parameter on the Configuration > Network > IP Routing/Forwarding > IP
Routing page. If the value in this text box is non-zero, the route metric will not be set to 16
until the number of connection attempts specified by this parameter have been made.
If the interface fails to connect, try again in s seconds
If an interface is requested to connect by this route (due to IP traffic being present) and it fails
to connect, the route will be marked as out of service but the router will continue to attempt
to connect at the interval specified by the value in this text box. If the interface does connect,
the router will clear the out of service status for the route.
Deactivate the interface after it successfully connects
When enabled, the router deactivates an interface once a successful activation attempt has
been made. This is used in conjunction with the above retry parameter. If the above retry
parameter is not set, this checkbox is disabled.
Do not allow this interface to be activated by this route for s seconds after the last activation
attempt
The delay to wait before re-initiating a connection after it has dropped whilst still required.
Only queue one packet whilst waiting for the interface to connect
When enabled, the router enqueues only one packet while waiting for the interface to
connect. When unchecked, the router will enqueue two packets.
When this route becomes available, deactivate the following interfaces x,y x,y
The interfaces specified by the values in these two pairs of drop-down list and text boxes are
deactivated when this route becomes available again after being out of service. This feature is
typically used to deactivate backup interfaces when the primary interface becomes available
after being out of service. Select the required interface from the drop-down list and enter the
interface instance number into the text box as usual.
