Default Route n parameters
Digi TransPort User Guide 365
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 enqueues 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 will
be 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.
When this route becomes unavailable, remove the “Out Of Service” state on x,y
This drop-down list and text box are used to specify the interface (available options are None,
PPP, Ethernet, and Tunnel ) and instance that should be taken out of the Out of Service state
when the interface that this route is configured to use is deactivated.
Keep this route in service for s seconds after OOS state is cleared
When enabled, the following text box is enabled (such as it is no longer disabled out), allowing
a value to be entered. The value specifies the period that the interface specified above will
remain in service even though it is actually unable to pass traffic immediately. This is behavior
useful in situations where a PPP interface is activating and traffic should not try the next
interface until this one has been allowed a certain amount of time to come up. When this
timer expires, if the interface is unable to pass traffic, it will be marked Out of Service and the
next interface will be tried.
Assign this route to recovery group n
Used to assign the route to a recovery group. This means that if all the routes in a particular
recovery group go out of service, the out of service status is cleared for all routes in that
group. If one route in a group comes back into service, all routes with a lower priority (metric)
also have their out of service status cleared.
