CONFIG Commands

All device and protocol con®guration information related to network interfaces is stored by interface number. Any changes made to interface numbers will invalidate much of the device con®guration information in the protocols.

Config> add device dial-circuit

Adding device as interface 8

Defaulting Data-link protocol to PPP

Use "set data-link" command to change the data-link protocol

Use "net 8" command to configure circuit parameters

isdn-addressaddress-name network-dial-address network-subdial-address

Adds the local and remote numbers of the ISDN end-points that will be communicating with your router.

address-name

Can be anything (such as a description of the port).

network-dial-address

The telephone number of the local or the destination port.

network-subdial-address

The additional part of the telephone number, such as an extension, that gets interpreted when the interface connects to a PBX; this parameter is optional.

Note: You can use punctuation, such as parentheses and dashes, but the punctuation is not signi®cant (the router uses only the numbers).

Example: add isdn-address line 1 local

Assign network dial address [0 - 32 digits]? 1 2345 67

Assign network subdial address [0 - 19 digits]? 98765

ppp-user

Adds the user pro®le of a remote user to the local PPP user data base. You

can add up to 500 users. You add a PPP user for each remote router or

DIALs client that can connect to the device you are con®guring. You must

con®gure PPP users if either of the following conditions exist:

v You are using PPP authentication protocols, PPP encryption, the Dial-In

Access to LANs (DIALs) feature, or allowing users to use the dial-out

feature. You need to con®gure a PPP user for either type of encryption -

Encryption Control Protocol (ECP) or Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption

(MPPE); however, MPPE does not require the encryption key.

v You want the PPP user data base to be locally stored and managed by

the device. If you want PPP user information to be obtained from a

RADIUS, TACACS, or TACACS+ server, then you should con®gure the

Authentication feature instead of con®guring local PPP users.

Note: MPPE cannot use the RADIUS, TACACS, or TACACS+ server.

For MPPE, the PPP user data base must be local.

If ECP has been enabled for the user, you are prompted for the PPP user

name, password, IP address, and encryption key .

If the DIALs feature is in the software load, you are asked if this is a DIALs

user.

If you are adding a user for a DIALs client, then you are prompted for the

hostname, type of route, network mask, connect time, call-back information,

and dial-out capability.
