Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)
•
Use the defaults for the data_bits (8), stop_bits (1), and parity (none) parameters.
•
Set the speed parameter to the rate required for the PPP link. Set the remote end to match this
value.
•
To configure the port for hardware (EIA) flow control, set the control_lines parameter to
flow_control and the input_flow_control and the output_flow_control parameters to eia. If
you do this, you must also set the ppp_acm parameter 0x000a0000.
•
To configure the port for software (XON/XOFF) flow control, set the control_lines parameter
to none and the input_flow_control and the output_flow_control parameters to start/stop.
•
Set the dialup_addresses parameter to N (use the fixed endpoint address).
•
Set the remote_address parameter to 132.254.5.9.
•
Set the local_address parameter to 132.254.10.7.
•
Set the subnet_mask parameter to 255.255.255.0.
•
Set the metric parameter to one.
•
Set the ppp_username_remote parameter to the string castle.
•
Set the ppp_password_remote parameter to the string sand.
•
Set the ppp_security_protocol parameter to pap (password authentication protocol).
•
Set the allow_compression parameter to Y if you want the Model 5390 server to accept
compressed packets.
•
Enter the routing information into the gateway section of the configuration file. For example:
%gateway
# PPP link to the 132.254.5.0 net
annex 132.254.10.7
#132.254.5.9 is a gateway to the entire
#132.254.5.0 net with a metric of 1
route add 132.254.5.0 255.255.255.0 132.254.5.9 1
else
NOTE:
PPP is an 8-bit protocol. If data_bits is set to 7, and parity is
not set to none, the Model 5390 server forces the data_bits setting to 8
and the parity setting to none. Otherwise, the Model 5390 server sys-
logs an error message for the port.
