The Ethernet > Answer > PPP Options subprofile contains parameters that further define PPP
encapsulation characteristics:
•
Enabling routing or bridging (the Route IP, Route IPX, and Bridge parameters).
•
Authentication protocols (the Bi-Dir Auth, Recv Auth, and Disc on Auth Timeout
parameters).
•
Compression (the IPX Header Compression, Link Compression and VJ Comp
parameters).
•
Callback (CBCP Enable parameter).
•
Frame size (the MRU and MTU parameters).
•
Link quality (the LQM, LQM Min, and LQM Max parameters).
•
Dynamic bandwidth management (the BACP, Dyn Alg, Sec History, Add Pers, Sub Pers,
Min Ch Count, Max Ch Count, Target Util, and Idle Pct parameters).
The Ethernet > Answer > COMB Options subprofile contains parameters that further define
Combinet encapsulation characteristics:
•
Password requirements (the Password parameter).
•
Transmission of line-integrity packets (the Interval parameter).
•
Data compression (the Compression parameter).
The Ethernet > Answer > V.120 subprofile contains the Frame Length parameter that defines
V.120 encapsulation information field length.
The Ethernet > Answer > X.75 Options subprofile contains parameters that further define X.75
encapsulation, including the following:
•
Information field length (the Frame Length parameter).
•
T1 line recovery procedure (the N2 Retran Count and T1 Retran Timer parameters).
The Ethernet > Answer > TCP-Clear Options subprofile contains parameters that are used to
improve raw TCP performance, including Detect End of Packet, End of Packet Pattern, Packet
Flush Length, and Packet Flush Time.
The Answer profile’s IP Options and IPX Options subprofiles contain parameters that define
routing (the Metric and Peer parameters).
Defining the call session
The Session Options subprofile contains parameters that define connection variables applied
on a session-by-session basis, including the following:
•
How the routing table is updated (the RIP parameter).
•
How filters are applied (the Data Filter, Call Filter, IPX SAP Filter and Filter Persistence
parameters).
•
How session, terminal-server, and channel idle times are handled (the Idle, TS Idle,
TSIdleMode, and Preempt parameters).
•
The maximum duration of an incoming session (the Max Call Duration parameter).
