Setting the Idle Timeout
In the Location Idle Timeout window, select an idle timeout value for this location. The idle timeout is the length of time the line can be idle before the PortMaster disconnects the connection to a specified location.
The idle timeout value is specified in minutes or seconds, can be any value from 0 to 255, and is valid for manual and on-demand locations.
If the value is set to 2 seconds or a longer interval, the location is disconnected after having no traffic for the designated time. RIP packets are not counted as traffic.
