idle for this length of time, the call will be ended.
By default, this value is 30.0 seconds.
Once a PPP connection is established, it will not be
released until it has been idle for this amount of
time. This means that if data is being constantly
sent over a PPP connection, the connection will
never be dropped and any data that needs to use a
second PPP connection may never be set.

Creating and Configuring Servers
Each connection in the tree on the left-hand side of the LAN/WAN Web page can
contain one or more servers. Each server can provide email (SMTP) service, a
WebBinder destination, LNS uplink services, or time services. A single server
may provide multiple services. By default, the LAN connection contains the
Turnaround Address server with the WebBinder service (to allow the i.LON
100 to be bound to itself) and a sample email server called
mymailserver.mydomain.com. Each of the sample dial-up connections also
contains a sample email server. To create a server, follow these steps:
1. Open
the
LAN/WAN page by hovering your mouse cursor over Network and
selecting LAN/WAN from the drop-down menu.
