Blacklist
The blacklist function prevents the router from redialing an unreachable phone number (a number
to which it has been unable to connect). The router maintains a list of phone numbers (up to a
maximum of 14) to which it will not make an outgoing call. When the router attempts to dial a
phone number and fails a certain number of times, the phone number is put onto the blacklist. You
must restore the number manually before it can be dialed again. You can remove a phone number
from the list by entering its index number at the Remove Selection prompt. You can specify the
number of attempts and the retry interval in Menu 2.1 - Advanced MODEM Setup.

Budget Management
The budget management function provides a way for you to set a limit on phone line utilization to
prevent any accidental overuse. This function limits the total outgoing call time of the router over
a period of time to each remote node and remote dial-in user (callback only). When this limit is
reached, the call is dropped and further outgoing calls to that remote node or remote dial-in user
(callback) fail. If the total outgoing call time exceeds the set limit, future outgoing calls are not
made and the current call is dropped. After each total period, the total budget is reset. The default
for the total budget is 0 minutes, and the total period is 0 hours. These values disable budget
control. You can reset the total outgoing call time through the Call Control menu. The total
outgoing call timer can be programmed to reset itself periodically through menus 11 and 13.
