MRU

This is the Maximum Receive Unit size in bytes for PPP packets. The default value is 1500 bytes.

ACCM

The Asynchronous Character Control Map allows you to set characters which must be “escaped” for your particular communications link. For the vast majority of communications links, the default (no characters escaped) is correct.

ϖNote: If you set Flow Control to XOn/XOff in the Interface Configuration dialog box (under WAN/Physical Configuration) for this WAN interface, the characters for XOn and XOff will automatically be escaped by the router.

Address/Control Compression

This checkbox controls whether this router will use the method defined in the

PPPspecification for compression of the PPP address and control fields. The default is checked.

Protocol Compression

This checkbox controls whether this router will use the method defined in the

PPPspecification for compression of the PPP protocol fields. The default is checked.

Multilink PPP Dialog Box

Multilink PPP Dialog Box

This dialog box is used to configure Multilink PPP (MPPP) parameters for multiple WAN interfaces. MPPP allows multiple physical links to be combined into a “bundle” which provides a virtual link with greater band- width than a single link
