LCS60 Configuration and Connection for PPP Service

Note: If your client package does not support entry of a zero IP address (i.e., it is not fully IPCP/PPP conformant) enter the reserved IP address instead of zero.

If you are using a reserved address but not authenticating by means of a NAC, then you must also specify your userid on the data switch dial- string as shown below:

DESTINATION: area/exch/60name.ppp..-uuserid

This specifies the full address of your LCS60 including the userid entered when the address was reserved. For example, for a userid hartnell on the LCS60 morse:

DESTINATION: mlkway/earth/morse.ppp..-uhartnell

Note: When reserving IP addresses, it may take as much as a minute for the IP Network Address Server to detect changes in the database. Users who attempt to log on before that delay will not receive their reserved IP address.

Dynamically Assigned IP Address

The LCS60 will assign an IP address dynamically from the IP network range associated with the called IP Network Security Group. To do so, the session start up request must meet one of the following conditions:

The user has included the -Doption on his/her data switch dialstring and has a negotiable IP address administered in his/her client software pack- age.

The -Doption has been omitted from the dialstring and the user does not have a reserved IP address administered in the LCS60 configuration data- base.

To obtain a dynamic address from the LCS60 for your Mac or PC you must:
