Hi all,
I'm currently using diald to manage an Ethernet card connected to an ADSL
modem. Connecting to the ADSL service is a little different from the usual pppd
(it involves dhcp, telnet and http), but I've written a perl script to automate
it.
I've put the line "mode dev" in diald.conf, and it works great in bringing up
the line when needed with my perl script. However, diald never seems to bring
the connection down (ie call my disconnect script) when there are no packets.
The diald documentation states that in mode dev, the standard filter policy is
not used, and the link is brought up on any packet. Does that also mean that
the policy is also not used in determining when to bring the link down (ie the
link is up all the time)? Is there any way I can change that?
regards,
tj tan
