PPP/Max Failure

Write security: 3; Read security: 5

Due to the nature of PPP, configuration options may not be agreed upon between two PPP peers. This value is the number of configu- ration requests that should occur before an option is configuration- rejected. This allows a connection to succeed that might otherwise fail.

Possible values: 5 (def), 10, 15, 20.

PPP Profile/Filters

The Router Option Module can block packets in and out of a WAN port by use of the filters. They are set up in two steps:

1.Define the types of packets that would be of interest in the Con- figuration/Security/Filter Defines menu,

2.Set up the filter type and combination of defines that will cause a packet block.

Filters/WAN-to-LAN (In) Write security: 2; Read security: 5

The packets which come into the Router Option Module can be fil- tered in three ways:

Disabled (def)	Turns off packet input filtering. No incoming
	packets are blocked.
Block All	All incoming packets from the WAN are
	blocked except as defined in the Filters/In
	Exceptions list.
