Dying Gasp
The Dying Gasp signal (in the figurative sense: "death rattle") is an electronic notification signal of a broadband network termination device.
This signal is then sent by Customer Premises Equipment (CPE), such as a DSL modem , when it is switched off or when a power failure occurs. The Dying Gasp signal is a data layer signal that can be evaluated at the provider network interface (e.g. a DSLAM port).
As a result, during grid faults the compound (z. B. PPPoE ) Provider -sided without timeout separated , so that for a rapid elimination of the fault (at about DSL re-syncs ) a novel compound faster (and without trying multiple login ) can be built.
The Dying Gasp signal is currently e.g. B. specified for ADSL2 + and SHDSL .
