PPPconnections are set between 100 and 1500 (default 1500). SLIP connections are set between 100 and 1006 (default 1006).

Netmask

This is the remote network’s IP subnet mask. The default is 255.255.255.0, which would be appropriate for a Class C net- work with no subnetting or for Class C size subnets of larger networks. You must change this value if the local network is using a different subnet mask. Use the following command:

set s0 netmask <netmask>

Input Filter

This filter determines whether or not a packet received from the port is allowed into the NETServer. See Chapter 8 for more information on packet filters. Use the following command:

set s0 ifilter <filter name>

Output Filter

This is the filter that determines whether an outbound packet sent to the port is allowed to leave the NETServer. See Chapter 8 for more information on packet filters. Use following com- mand:

set s<port #> ofilter <filter name>

PPP Async Map

The PPP protocol supports the escaping of non-printing ASCII characters. Escaping means that specific characters won’t be sent, but will be replaced by a special set of characters. The remote site then interprets this special set of characters as the original characters.

The PPP Async Map is a bit-map of the 32ASCII control charac- ters (the first 32 characters of the ASCII character set), repre- sented as 8 hexadecimal digits. The order is actually big endian, which means that the last bit of the last character corresponds to the first ASCII character (Null) and so on.

set s0 map <value>
