negotiate these characters with the 833IS, and no control characters should need to
be set in the 833IS
Async Control map. If you are using older clients that cannot
successfully negotiate this map, you will need to set the control characters in the
Async Control map.
For best performance, select only those characters that must be masked off. Any
selected control characters are translated to multiple characters, degrading
performance.
Apple PPP
PPP was originally available on the Mac using freeware PPP stacks. The two most
popular were FreePPP and MacPPP. In Mac OS 7.6, Apple introduced a PPP client
which has evolved to the current Remote Access Client.
Recent versions of this client also supports PPP transport of AppleTalk, known as
MacIP. MacIP is not supported by the 833IS.
On connect, the 833IS will check with a dial in client to see if it wants to use
Multilink PPP.
MacPPP does not support this negotiation and will fail. To resolve this, disable
Multilink PPP on the PPP configuration screen.
