Chapter 3: Terminal Menu Operation and Structure

Call Sessions/Session1 and Call Sessions/Session2

Read security: 5

The Express XL/XLT can support up to two active connections at one time. These two menus reflect the results of PPP negotiations, user name, time con- nected, idle timer, and data rates for the session.

PPPLinks - Reflects LCP layers active

BCP - Shows UP if PPP Bridge Control Protocol has negotiated successfully

IPCP - Shows UP if PPP IP Control Protocol has negotiated successfully

IPXCP - Shows UP if PPP IPX Control Protocol has negotiated successfully

CCP - Shows UP if PPP Compression Control Protocol has negotiated successfully

BACP - Shows UP if PPP Bandwidth Allocation Control Protocol has negotiated successfully

User - Displays the user name of the PPP peer

Number(s) - Shows the phone number dialed if outgoing call or caller ID if incoming call.

Connect Time - Shows the date and time when the call last connected.

Up Time - Displays how long the call has been connected.

Idle Timer - Current value of the idle timer (number of seconds since filtered packet was passed through).

Tx Pkts - Number of packets transmitted

Rx Pkts - Number of packets received

Tx Bytes - Number of bytes transmitted

Rx Bytes - Number of bytes received

Tx Rate - Current application data transmission rate

Rx Rate - Current application data reception rate
