Establishing a SLIP Session

Establishing a SLIP Session

Enabling a SLIP Session from the PC

The following example shows how a nonprivileged user could configure and start a SLIP session. The example assumes that the port characteristics are configured as shown this example. The CHANGE PORT SLIP MTU command is optional.

Local> CHANGE PORT SLIP HOST 195.1.1.1 SLIP MTU 800

Local> CHANGE PORT SLIP MTU 800

Local> CONNECT SLIP

Local-561-Starting SLIP or PPP datalink session

If you previously configured the port with an Internet address and an MTU, then you only need to use the CONNECT SLIP command.

After Making a Connection

Once you enter the CONNECT SLIP command, the access server expects IP packets from the PC formatted as SLIP frames. Use the appropriate command to exit from terminal emulation mode on your PC and start the desired IP application program.

To transfer files, use any file transfer program that supports SLIP. You do not need to configure data transparency on the access server.
