Configuring the Idle Disconnect

You will need to set the Idle Disconnect. This is the period of time, in tenths of a second, that the link will remain idle before closing down.

1. From the Link Editor, select Timers and Counters.

   The Timers and Counters button is located under Advanced Parameters.

2. Set the Idle Disconnect.

   Set a value (in tenths of a second) that is high enough to allow for lost traffic and retries, but low enough that you are not constantly paying for an idle link.

3. Click on OK to update the configuration and return to the Link Editor.

4. Click on OK to update the configuration and exit the Link Editor.
