Call Scheduling
Call scheduling allows you to dictate when a remote node should be called and for how long.
36.1 Introduction to Call Scheduling
The call scheduling feature allows the ZyWALL to manage a remote node and dictate when a remote node
should be called and for how long. This feature is similar to the scheduler in a videocassette recorder (you
can specify a time period for the VCR to record). You can apply up to 4 schedule sets in Menu 11.1 -
Remote Node Profile. From the main menu, enter 26 to access Menu 26 - Schedule Setup as shown next.

Figure 36-1 Schedule Setup
Lower numbered sets take precedence over higher numbered sets thereby avoiding scheduling conflicts. For
example, if sets 1, 2, 3 and 4 are applied in the remote node, then set 1 will take precedence over set 2, 3 and
4 as the ZyWALL, by default, applies the lowest numbered set first. Set 2 will take precedence over set 3 and
4, and so on.
You can design up to 12 schedule sets but you can only apply up to four schedule sets for a remote node.
