Max Unsucc. calls, Inactivity Timer, and MRU parameters
The next set of parameters in Ethernet > Connections > Connection profile > Encaps Options 
define the maximum number of calls, the number of seconds the MAX allows a connection to 
remain inactive, and the maximum number of bytes the MAX can receive in a single IP packet:
Call Mode and X.121 parameters
The following parameters in Ethernet > Connection > Connection profile > Encaps Options 
define whether the MAX can initiate a call request, the X.121 src addr parameter of the X.25 
profile on the MAX and the X.121 address of the remote host to which the profile connects:
Parameter
Specifies
Max Unsucc. calls
The maximum number of unsuccessful X.25 calls that the MAX can 
attempt before it drops the modem connection. The default of 0 (zero) 
allows an unlimited number.
Inactivity Timer
The number of seconds the MAX allows a connection to remain 
inactive before it drops the virtual circuit.
MRU
The maximum number of bytes the MAX can receive in a single IP 
packet on the X.25 link. If the setting is larger than the X.25 packet 
size, the IP packet is further fragmented to fit the maximum X.25 
packet size. The default is 1500 bytes.
Parameter
Specifies
Call Mode
Whether the MAX can initiate a call request on the connection.
Answer X.121 Addr The value specified in the X.121 src addr parameter of the X.25 profile
on the MAX, although the value might be different because the MAX 
unit’s X.25 connection can have more than one X.121 address. You 
should not leave Answer X.121 address blank if Call Mode specifies 
either Both or Incoming.
You can substitute the beginning portion of the address with the 
wildcard * which indicates that the MAX should accept any value, 
requiring a match only on the trailing digits that you specify after the 
wildcard character.
Remote X.121 Addr The value specified in the X.121 source address of the remote X.25
host to which the profile connects. You should not leave Remote X.121 
addr blank if you set Call Mode to Both or Outgoing. If you configure a 
value for Remote X.121 address, the MAX attempts to match the 
incoming call to Remote X.121 address as well as Answer X.121 
address.
You can substitute the beginning portion of the address with the 
wildcard * which indicates that the MAX should accept any value, 
requiring a match only on the trailing digits that you specify after the 
wildcard character. For outgoing calls, the MAX dials only the trailing 
digits specified, ignoring the beginning wildcard character.
