19 Modem Dial-Up
19.1 Overview
When a Modem is attached to the IP6610 asynchronous RS-232 port, the dial-up feature can automatically
dial into an ISP (Internet Service Provider) and establish a PPP link whenever a packet is going out along
the WAN port and no PPP link is running. With this feature, an Internet connection can be established on
demand and be torn down after a certain idle period. IP6610 will keep the modem connection until the
timeout threshold is reached. User can use cli command to hang-up manually if needed.
