IBM AS/400E Conguring Point-to-Point Network Connections, Conguring PPP Connection Proles, Accessing Point-to-Point functions through Operations Navigator, Checking for existing PPP Connection Proles

Let us say your environment needs four dial-on-demand connection profiles, but
you only need two lines available at one time. Youcould create a line pool for
two of the four lines, so two connections profiles are active at any time. By using
a line pool, you do not need to have four lines available at the same time.

Accessing Point-to-Point functions through Operations Navigator
Youcan access Point-to-Point (PPP) functions from a command line interface or
Operations Navigator (graphical user interface). Not all PPP functions are available
on both interfaces, and most PPP functions are available only through Operations
Navigator. Operations Navigator functions are not documented here.
Toaccess the Point-to-Point Profile Properties dialogs, perform the following
tasks:
1. Start Operations Navigator.
2. Double-click your AS/400 server in the main tree view of Operations Navigator.
3. Double-click Network.
4. Double-click Point-to-Point.
5. Right-click Connection Profiles to open a context menu.
6. Select New Profile to open the New Point-to-Point Profile Properties dialog.
Click the desired tab to define properties.
