Nailed-Up Connection
A nailed-up connection is a dial-up line where the connection is always up,
regardless of traffic demand. The Business Secure Router does two things when
you specify a nailed-up connection. The first is that idle timeout is disabled. The
second is that the Business Secure Router tries to bring up the connection when
turned on and whenever the connection is down. A nailed-up connection can be
very expensive.
Do not specify a nailed-up connection unless your telephone company offers
flat-rate service or you need a constant connection and the cost is of no concern.
Table 20 describes the fields specific to PPPoE encapsulation.
