PPP Configuration Overview
Your first configuration step is to create a global PPP configuration record using the
pppglobal
command. This global record is used to provide default settings to be used for
incoming calls. Then, you can add individual PPP configuration records (called “PPP Entities”)
for each peer (i.e., for each remote site) with which you wish to be able to establish a point-
to-point connection. You will need to know specific information about the remote peers with
which you wish to connect in order to successfully configure the PPP Entity.
After you have configured at least one PPP Entity, you can use the other commands on the
PPP Menu to modify, delete, view, and display its operational status. You can then add PPP
Entities as you need them to support additional PPP connection requirements.
When a port is configured for PPP via the
wpm
command, a PPP entity and a WAN link entry
are created automatically. For more information, see Chapter 28 titled “Managing WAN
Switching Modules.”
