Attribute Description
Entry (PP#) Enter the PPP User identifier.
The Entry number uniquely identifies an user on the PPP User List. The value for this setting
must follow certain conventions. You must type the prefix 'PP' followed by a unique number
identifying the PPP User. For example, 'PP2' is a valid name. If you specify an existing Entry
number, you receive an error message. If you use non-sequential numbers the system
automatically reassigns sequential numbers. The Entry number does not have any significance,
other than uniquely identifying a PPP User.
