PPP-list
The router needs the device names contained in the PPP list in order to determine the
security procedure settings suitable for the connection and to determine the PPP
parameters. It contains a maximum of 64 entries and is structured as follows:
Not all parameters can be reached via the telnet configuration. Use
ELSA LANconfig so
far as possible.
Below is a detailed description of the meaning of each field:

Device-name
In the Device-name column, you can enter the name with which the remote station
logs onto the router
.
In the case of connections via the data transmission network, this is the name entered
as “Username”. For remote access via the data transmission network, the 'Username'
field (see below) is not evaluated!
Entries are not case-sensitive!
Auth.
In this column, you can enter the security procedure to be used for verification of the
remote station. Default: PAP
None
The router does not negotiate authentication with the remote station
when establishing a connection. However, the remote station can
itself require authentication from the router. This is the case when
dialing up a connection to an ISP, for example.
PAP
The remote station is checked as per the Password Authentication Pro-
tocol.
CHAP
The remote station is checked as per the Challenge Handshake Authen-
tication Protocol.
Key
A password may be entered in this column. Its presence is indicated by the symbol *
and it is used to check the remote station. It may consist of 95 characters (7-bit ASCII,
including spaces). Default: None.
The
set ?
command shows a list of the allowable characters.
Time
In this column, you can enter the period of time between two remote station verifica-
tions specified in minutes. The CHAP protocol must be set here. Default: 0
Try
In this column, you can specify the number of times the verification attempt is to be
repeated. If verification fails, the connection is immediately terminated. Default: 5
Conf, Fail and
Term
These parameters may be used to influence the operation of the PPP. They are defi-
ned and described in RFC 1661. The default values are sufficient for most remote sta-
tions. If nothing is entered here, the values 0,0,0 appear in the display but the default
values 10, 5, 2 are still used.
These parameters can only be changed via SNMP or TFTP (using the
ELSA LANconfig
configuration program)!
Username
The user name (max. 64 characters) transmitted to the remote station during PPP
negotiation. The router identifies itself to the remote station with it.
If no user name is entered, the device name serves as the user name.
Entries are case-sensitive here.
Rights
Network protocols to be routed over this connection: IP, IPX, NTB (NetBIOS). NetBIOS
always requires one of the other two protocols.
The routing of IP or NetBIOS via PPP always requires a suitable route (in the IP routing
table for IP or in the remote-station table for NetBIOS).
