Configuring PPP connections
MAX 6000/3000 Network Configuration Guide 4-45
Example of a PPP connection
Figure 4-1 shows the MAX unit with a PPP connection to a remote user who is running
Windows 95 with a TCP/IP stack and PPP dialup software. The dial-in user has a modem, so
the call is asynchronous and uses only one channel.
Figure 4-1. A PPP connection
To configure this PPP connection:
1Make sure the Answer profile enables PPP encapsulation and has the appropriate routing,
bridging, and authentication settings. For example:
Ethernet
Answer
Encaps
PPP=Yes
PPP Options
Route IP=Yes
Route IPX=Yes
Bridge=Yes
Recv Auth=Either
2Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
3Open an Ethernet > Connections > Connection profile.
4Specify the name of the remote device and activate the profile. For example:
Ethernet
Connections
tommy
Station=tommy
Active=Yes
Note: Make sure that you specify the Station name exactly, including case.
5Select PPP encapsulation and set the appropriate PPP Options. For example:
Encaps=PPP
Encaps Options
Send Auth=CHAP
Send PW=remotepw/A
Recv PW=localpw
The Send Auth parameter should be set to CHAP or PAP. Both sides of the connection
must support the selected authentication protocol and the selected compression methods.
6Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
Following is a comparable RADIUS profile:
tommy Password = "localpw"
