Idle timeout in 3.1.4

Has the default idle timeout on dialup ports on the PM-2e been
changed with ComOS 3.1.4? Users have been reporting that their
connection drops after a certain amount of idle time. The "show
<portnumber>" does not display the idle timeout. I have to do a "set
all idle 0" to see what the setting was before I changed it. In our
case, it was set to 20 minutes. I do not know if this was the value
before we upgraded to 3.1.4 (I recently took over the admin job here).
If we *had* originally disabled the timeouts, and upgrading to
3.1.4 changed that, then at least I know why the user complaints have
suddenly flared up. If *not*, then I will have to look elsewhere for
the cause of this problem. Thanks.
