USER MANUAL
GWR Router Series
26
Deflate Compression
Disable or enable Deflate compression.
Compression Control
Protocol negotiation
Disable CCP (Compression Control Protocol) negotiation. This option should
only be required if the peer is buggy and gets confused by requests from pppd
for CCP negotiation.
Magic Number
negotiation
Disable magic number negotiation. With this option, pppd cannot detect a
looped-back line. This option should only be needed if the peer is buggy.
Passive Mode
Enables the “passive” option in the LCP. With this option, pppd will attempt to
initiate a connection; if no reply is received from the peer, pppd will then just
wait passively for a valid LCP packet from the peer, instead of exiting, as it
would without this option.
Silent Mode
With this option, pppd will not transmit LCP packets to initiate a connection
until a valid LCP packet is received from the peer (as for the “passive” option
with ancient versions of pppd).
Append domain name
Append the domain name d to the local host name for authentication purposes.
Show PAP password
in log
When logging the contents of PAP packets, this option causes pppd to show the
password string in the log message.
Time to wait before re-
initiating the link
(sec)
Specifies how many seconds to wait before re-initiating the link after it
terminates. The holdoff period is not applied if the link was terminated because it
was idle.
LCP-Echo-Failure
If this option is given, pppd will presume the peer to be dead if n LCP echo-
requests are sent without receiving a valid LCP echo-reply. If this happens, pppd
will terminate the connection. This option can be used to enable pppd to
terminate after the physical connection has been broken (e.g., the modem has
hung up) in situations where no hardware modem control lines are available.
LCP-Echo-Interval
If this option is given, pppd will send an LCP echo-request frame to the peer
every n seconds. Normally the peer should respond to the echo-request by
sending an echo-reply. This option can be used with the lcp-echo-failure option to
detect that the peer is no longer connected.
Use Peer DNS
With this option enabled, router resolves addresses using ISP’s DNS servers.
Modem Initialization
String
This field provides an option to directly specify AT commands.
Roaming Mode
By enabling this option router will be able to connect to roaming netw
ork.

Settings – Routing
The static routing function determines the path that data follows over your network before and after
it passes through the GWR Router. You can use static routing to allow different IP domain users to access
the Internet through the GWR Router. Static routing is a powerful feature that should be used by advanced
users only. In many cases, it is better to use dynamic routing because it enables the GWR Router to
automatically adjust to physical changes in the network’s layout.
The GWR Router is a fully functional router with static routing capability. Figure 14 shows
screenshot of Routing page.
