7. If you enabled a persistent GPRS connection for the phone number you entered by selecting the
Persistent GPRS check box, you can select the GPRS Check checkbox to set the following
properties:
Hostname (complete)
Enter the hostname or IP address of the Web server provided by the
ISP for the GPRS connection.
Check Interval
Enter the amount of time after which the SmartServer connects to the
ISP automatically.
Retry Time
Set the interval (in seconds) that network messages wait for
confirmation before being re-sent over the network. The default time
retry time is 120 seconds.
Retry Count
Set the number of times a network message is re-sent when no
confirmation is received.
Verify Mode
Select the method in which the SmartServer simulates internet activity
in order to verify that the GPRS connection is active. You have the
following three choices:
Default. The SmartServer pings the IP address of the Web
server, and it opens a TCP connection to the HTTP port (80) of
the Web server. If either check succeeds, the GPRS connection is
active.
Ping Host. The SmartServer pings the IP address of the Web
server. This is similar to the ‘ping’ command in Linux or
Windows.
Check HTTP Connection. The SmartServer opens a TCP
connection to the HTTP port (80) of the Web server.
If the GPRS connection is lost, the SmartServer restarts the modem.
Once you have created and configured a dial-out connection, you can add host devices to the
connection (remote SmartServers, OpenLNS Servers, e-mail servers, time servers, IP-852
Configuration Servers, and Web Connection Target servers). For information on how to do this, see
the next section, Adding Host Devices.
Adding Host Devices

connection, or though a dial-up connection that you have added to the SmartServer’s built-it analog
