Table 3-25. Interface PPP Options

Circuit Type

Possible Settings: Standard, IP Enabled

Default Setting:

For a user data port link: Standard

For a network link: IP Enabled

Specifies the type of PPP circuit configured on the interface.

Standard – The circuit operates normally, supporting neither Payload Management nor

IP Enabled characteristics. This option value only appears for a user data port.

IP Enabled – The circuit is IP Enabled. This option is read-only for the network interface.

Keep Alive

Possible Settings: Enable, Disable

Default Setting: Enable

Determines whether Link Control Protocol (LCP) echo requests are generated on the circuit.

Enable – LCP Echo-Request codes are generated on the circuit, and Echo-Reply codes are generated for Echo-Requests received from the remote end.

Disable – LCP Echo-Request codes are not generated on the circuit, but Echo-Reply codes are generated for Echo-Requests received from the remote end.

DS0 Base Rate

Possible Settings: Nx64, Nx56

Default Setting: Nx64

Selects the base rate for the DS0s allocated to PPP on the network interface.

Display Conditions – This option appears only for network interfaces that support

DS0s.

Nx64 – The base rate is 64 Kbps.

Nx56 – The base rate is 56 Kbps.
