Connection Limit
The Connection Limit section allows the administrator to set a host/node limit on the modem
connection. This feature is especially useful for deployments where the modem connection is
used as an overflow or in load-balanced situations to avoid over-taxing the connection.
In the Max Hosts field, enter the maximum number of hosts to allow when this interface is
connected. The default value is “0”, which allows an unlimited number of nodes.
Modem > Connection Profiles
The Modem > Connection Profiles page allows you to configure modem profiles on the
SonicWALL security appliance using your dial-up ISP information for the connection. Multiple
modem profiles can be used when you have a different profile for individual ISPs.
The current profile is displayed in the Connection Profiles table, which displays the following
profile information:
• Name - The name you've assigned to the profile. You can use names such as Home, Office,
or Travel to distinguish different profiles from each other.
• IP Address - The IP address of the Internet connection.
• Connection Type - Displays Persistent, Connect on Data, or Manual Dial, depending on what
you selected in the Profile Configuration window for the profile.
• Configure - Clicking the edit icon allows you to edit the profile. Clicking on the delete icon de-
letes the profile.
