This value is the number of seconds to wait between unanswered configura- tion-requests. The possible values are 1 sec, 2 secs (def), 3 secs, 5 secs and 10 secs.

PPP/Max Failure

Write security: 3; Read security: 5

Due to the nature of PPP, configuration options may not be agreed upon be- tween two PPP peers. This value is the number of configuration-naks that should occur before an option is configuration-rejected. This allows a connec- tion to succeed that might otherwise fail. The possible values are 5 (def), 10, 15 and 20.

PPP Profile/Filters

The Express L768/L1.5 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 Configuration/Security/Filter Defines menu, and

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 Express L768/L1.5 can be filtered 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.
