Changing the Number of Call Initiation Attempts

When the call is first initiated, the local host waits for a response from the remote host to begin the login sequence. The length of time the local host waits and the number of times the local host attempts to initiate the call are defined by the following entry:

expect  	"ogin:"  10  onerror send BREAK repeat 3

The first figure (10) defines the wait period, and the second figure (3) defines the number of call initiation attempts. You can modify both of these parameters.

For example, to retry the call initiation once every 5 seconds for a total of 10 attempts, change the line in the file to:

expect  	"ogin:"  5  onerror send BREAK repeat 10
