ASYNC ROUTER AR-P, AR-5, AND SYNC ROUTER REFERENCE MANUAL

on—the specified value will be negotiated

off—the specified value will not be negotiated

2.18.1INTERFACE STATUS

pppi&g_iface

Current status of an interface - With no other parameters, the ppp iface command issued as shown above displays the current PPP status of the interface iface you specify.

2.18.2COMPRESSION METHOD SELECTION

ppp i&g_iface ccp {local remote} method

[stacker history num none allow [on off]]

method—Displays or sets the compression method used for outgoing packets on the Router.

stacker—Selects the Stacker™ algorithms to be used to compress outgoing packets.

history num—Compression can be turned on with history, or without history. History 1 turns on compression; history 0 turns off compression. Compression without history compresses each packet based upon that packet only. Compression with history compresses packets based upon the packet itself, and previous types of packets. History allows the box to be more efficient when handling packets that are identical.

none—Selects no compression to be used on outgoing packets.

2.18.3LCP NEGOTIATION

ppp iface lcp {local remote} accm [bitmap allow [on off]]

Displays or sets the desired Asynchronous Control Character Map (ACCM).

bitmap Specify the bitmap in octets. The default is 0xffffffff.

ppp iface lcp {local remote} authentication [chap pap none allow [on off]]

Displays or sets the authentication protocol. The default is none. Use local when you want the remote end to authenticate itself using the specified protocol. Use none when the remote end does not have to authenticate itself.

Use remote to suggest to the remote end that you authenticate yourself to it using the specified protocol or by suggesting that you not authenticate yourself at all if none was set. The remote end is free to ignore your suggestion. The acceptable authentication protocols are CHAP and PAP. The challenge handshake authentication protocol verifies the identity of a peer using a three-way handshake when establishing a link. The password authentication protocol verifies the identity of a peer using a two-way handshake when establishing a link. Because passwords are sent over the circuit in a text format (unencrypted), PAP is not as secure as CHAP.

chap

Selects challenge handshake authentication protocol

pap

Selects password authentication protocol

none

No authentication occurs when the point-to-point connection establishes a link.

 

This is the default setting.
