Time-module

The least-cost router in the device requires correct time information to calculate the call number diversions via call-by-call provider. Precise time information is also desirable for some statistics.

The time may be set manually (with the 'time' command) or automatically read from the ISDN network.

For automatic time comparison when the module is switched on, a previously specified remote station is called directly and the time information is taken from the ISDN network. So long as the time module is switched on, the time will be taken from the ISDN every time the router establishes a connection.

The time module has the following layout:

/Time-module Time-module settings
State Activating the module: On, Off
Current time Displays the current time in the device
Time call number Call number to which a connection must be established to receive time information from the ISDN
Dialing attempts Number of possible attempts to receive time information
