[App_rpt-users] Permanent connection?

[Jon Rorke]

The permanent connection is more of a persistent connection.
Using a normal connection will work but eventually the connection may 
drop due to internet latency (auto congest) or other reasons.
If you normally are connected to another node on a full time basis then 
the perm connection may be desirable.

What it does is keeps your node connected to the other node. If there is 
a loss of network connection it will re establish the connection 
automatically when the internet recovers.
This is only true if both nodes are up an running.

If a node was restarted or rebooted then the connection will have made 
manually.
If you want the connection to be made if a node is restarted then set up 
a macro to establish the perm connection. Then define a startup macro in 
your node stanza to call the macro to connect the two nodes when the 
node starts.
