TX Username

This is the username that is used when being authenticated by the PPP peer.

TX Password

This is the password or secret that is used when being authenticated by the PPP peer.

RX Username

This is the username used to authenticate the PPP peer.

RX Password

This is the password or secret that is used to authenticate the PPP peer.

IP

The IP menu contains the parameters for exchanging IP data with the PPP peer.

Mode

Setting to ON (def) will permit this connection profile to negotiate PPP IPCP with the PPP peer for exchanging of IP packets.

Local IP

This is the IP address that is assigned to the PPP link when using numbered links. Leaving this as

0.0.0.0means the Total Access 600 will determine its IP address using PPP IPCP. If the far end router does not assign an IP address, the PPP link is left unnumbered.

Netmask

This network mask is applied to the IP/Local IP address for determining the PPP peer's network. If left as 0.0.0.0, a standard network mask is used.

Remote IP

The PPP peer's IP address or network can be set here, if known. Leaving this at 0.0.0.0 means that the Total Access 600 will determine the PPP peer's IP and network using the PPP IPCP.

NAT

The Total Access 600 can perform Network Address Translation. This feature is most widely used when connecting to the Internet. The Ethernet network can consist of private network numbers. When this profile is connected, all IP addresses on the Ethernet side are translated into the one real IP address negotiated with the PPP peer (ISP). Multiple stations on the Ethernet side can access the Internet simul- taneously. Setting this option to ON will cause the Total Access 600 to perform NAT. In the OFF (def) position, the unit will route across the connection normally.

Route

The IP parameters are configured in this menu. Usually the Total Access 600 will automatically dis- cover the PPP peer's networks using PPP IPCP and/or RIP.

• Route/Static Route

Selecting yes will add a static route to the remote peer to the route table.

• Route/Private

Selecting yes will prevent this route from being advertised.

• Route/Hops (1-16)

This value is the metric or number of hops that RIP will use in advertising the static route. The range is 1 to 16, where 1 is the default. The value 16 is considered an infinite distance (poisoned route).
