Hello. I have an end user complaining of an adsl idle timeout, however, i havn't got an idle-timeout set on the 837's im using.<br />
<br />
Is there a default idle-timeout anyway?<br />
<br />
According to Cisco documentation I've found the default setting is no dialer idle-timeout<br />
which is what I have set, however, it also says<br />
Defaults <br />
<br />
Direction: either <br />
<br />
Idle time: 120 seconds <br />
<br />
<br />
does this mean there is a default with idle-timeout of 120 when this is set?<br />
Or the will be a dialer timeout of 120 by default even if you don't have dialer-timeout set?<br />
<br />
<br />

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
