restart

Shuts down and initializes the port.

 

 

 

 

slip-compression

Enables or disables Transmission Control

 

 

Protocol over IP (TCP/IP) header compression

 

 

for SLIP mode. The default is false. Use the

 

 

no operator to remove this configuration. To

 

 

configure this option to the default value, use the

 

 

default operator with the command.

 

 

 

 

slip-rx-compression

Enables or disables TCP/IP header compression

 

 

on the receive packet for SLIP mode. The default

 

 

is false. Use the no operator to remove this

 

 

configuration. To configure this option to the

 

 

default value, use the default operator with the

 

 

command.

 

 

 

Procedure job aid: PPP file

Create the PPP file with one option on each line; comment lines start with a pound sign (#). The following table lists the recognized options.

Table 11

Job aid: PPP file options

Option

Description

 

 

asyncmap <value>

Configures the desired async map to

 

the value you specify.

 

 

chap_file <file>

Obtains Challenge-Handshake

 

Authentication Protocol (CHAP)

 

secrets from the specified file. You

 

require this option if either peer

 

requires CHAP authentication. If your

 

users must use the same IP address,

 

the PAP and CHAP secret files must

 

specify the same IP address for all

 

users and it must match the peer-ip

 

setting on the modem port.

 

 

chap_interval <value>

Configures the interval, in seconds, for

 

the CHAP rechallenge to the value you

 

specify.

 

 

chap_restart <value>

Configures the timeout, in seconds,

 

for CHAP negotiation to the value you

 

specify.

 

 

debug

Activates the PPP daemon debug

 

mode.
