NAME

       ibod.cf - configuration file for ibod (ISDN Bandwidth On Demand)

DESCRIPTION

       This  file  contains  the  initial  configuration  values  for the ibod
       daemon. Each line contains a keyword and a value.

       Boolean attributes are set with 0 or 1 which corresponds to  false  and
       true  respectively.  A boolean attribute not specified at all is always
       false.

       Lines beginning with # are treated as comments and will be ignored.

       IMPORTANT RULES!
       1. Keywords are case sensitive.
       2. Kewords must begin at the first column.
       3. Keywords and values must be separated by exactly one  (1)  space  or
       tab character.

       This file is re-read every time ibod receives SIGHUP (1) signal.

   OPTIONS
       DEVICE <name>
              Name of ISDN PPP device. Default is ippp0.

       ENABLE 1|0
              Enable/disable bandwidth-on-demand.  Default is enable (1).

       INTERVAL <n>
              Specify the sample time interval in ms.  Default is 500 ms.

       FILTER <n>
              Defines "filtering factor". A value of 10 means that the average
              bytes/sec value measured over 10 intervals must pass  the  limit
              defined by LIMIT to bring up or down the slave link.  Default is
              5.

       LIMIT <n%>
              Specifies percentage loading of  the  channel  at  which  it  is
              necessary  to  up  or down channels.  This sets both up and down
              limits to the same value.   Note  that  this  has  changed  from
              version 1.4.

       UPLIMIT <n%>
              Specifies  percentage  loading  of  the  channel  at which it is
              necessary to up channels.  Default is 90.

       DOWNLIMIT <n%>
              Specifies percentage loading of  the  channel  at  which  it  is
              necessary to down channels.  Default is 80.

       STAYUP 0|1
              Enable/disable  slave channel stay up function.  If enabled, the
              second channel (slave link) will stay up  even  if  the  average
              bytes/sec  decrease the value defined by LIMIT. In this case the
              slave link will stay up until hangup time is reached.  (Example:
              isdnctrl huptimeout ippp1 60) If disabled the slave link will be
              brought down in the same way it was brought up.  Default is 0.

       STAYUP_TIME <n>
              Defines the minimum time in  seconds  the  second  channel  will
              unconditionally  stay  up  after it has been brought up. Default
              value is 30.

       STAYDOWN_TIME <n>
              Defines the minimum time in  seconds  the  second  channel  will
              unconditionally  stay down after it has been brought up. Default
              value is 10.

       FULL <n>
              Defines the maximum throughput  in  bytes/sec  one  channel  can
              transmit. Default value is 7500.

       MAX_CHANNELS <n>
              Defines  the  maximum  number of channels the connection can run
              with. Default is 2.
