Configuring Inbound PPP Connections

C o n f i g u r i n g P P P

Use this section to configure simple inbound PPP connections from the command line. For information on fine-tuning PPP connections, see the set user command in the Digi One/PortServer TS Command Reference.

Note: CHAP authentication works between two Digi devices. CHAP will be negotiated to PAP for all other connections

Procedure for Command Line

1. To configure the port for a modem, enter the following command:

set ports range=range dev=device

where range is the port or ports and device is one of the following:

•min for inbound only modem connections

•mio for bidirectional modem connections.

See the set ports command in the Digi One/PortServer TS Command Reference for more information.

Example: set ports range=3 device=min

2. To configure flow control for the ports, enter the following command:

set flow range=range flow-control=scheme

where range is the port or ports and flow-control=schemeis the flow control required for this connection. Typically, for modem connections RTS and CTS are on.

Example: set flow range=3 ixon=off ixoff=off rts=on cts=on

See the set flow command in the Digi One/PortServer TS Command Reference for more information.

3.To configure the baud rate for this connection, enter the following command:

set line range=range baud=bps

where range is the port or ports to configure and bps is the line speed in bits-per-second. Typically, you can set this to 115000 bps for modem connections.

Example set line range=3 baud=115000

4. To create an inbound PPP user, enter the following command:

set user name=name protocol=ppp netservice=on defaultaccess=netservice

where name is a name to assign the PPP user Example:

set user name=pppin protocol=ppp netservice=on defaultaccess=netservice

5.To configure an IP address for the remote PPP user, enter the following command:
