PPP Configuration

This section covers the settings required for PPP (point-to-point) protocol operation of the WAN interfaces. In general, the parameters listed here should be set for each WAN interface on which you plan to use SMDS. Note that some WAN interfaces can be running PPP while others are running SMDS or Frame Relay.

Link Configuration

Required for Dedicated/Leased Line Operation

Dedicated line operation is the simplest to set up.

Set Dedicated connection

Set PPP connection

CV: Use the Link Configuration: WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and then set the Mode and ConnectMode keywords in the Link Config WAN 0 (and/or other port numbers you wish to configure) section.

Suggested for Dedicated/Leased Line Operation

Dedicated line operation generally does not require additional parame- ters for operation.

Required for Dial-On-Demand Operation

Incoming dial-on-demand operation requires only slightly more infor- mation than dedicated line setup. Outgoing dial-on-demand requires additional information (see the suggested settings below).

Set dial-up connection

Set PPP connection

Set to allow dial-in and/or dial-out

CV: Use the Link Configuration: WAN Dialog Box.

TB: Use configure and then set the Mode, ConnectMode, DialIn, and DialOut keywords in the Link Config WAN 0 (and/or other port numbers you wish to configure) section.
