ppp
The 'ppp' commands are used for Point to Point Protocol
interfaces.
This implementation of PPP is designed to be as complete as
possible. Because of this, the number of options can be rather
daunting. However, a typical PPP configuration might include the
following commands:
attach asy 0x3f8 4 ppp pp0 4096 1500 9600
dial pp0 30 <host> 3 dialer.pp0
#
ppp pp0 lcp local accm 0
ppp pp0 lcp local compress address on
ppp pp0 lcp local compress protocol on
ppp pp0 lcp local magic on
ppp pp0 lcp open active
#
ppp pp0 ipcp local compress tcp 16 1
ppp pp0 ipcp open active
#
route add default pp0
ppp <interface>
Display the status of the PPP interface.
The following commands are used for the LCP (Link Control
Protocol) configuration.
ppp <interface> lcp close
Shutdown the PPP interface.
ppp <interface> lcp local ...
The 'lcp local' commands control the configuration of the local
side of the link. If an option is specified, the parameters will
be used as the initial values in configuration requests. If not
specified, that option will not be requested.
For each of these options, the 'allow' parameter will permit the
remote host to include that option in its response, even when the
option is not included in the request. By default, all options
are allowed.
ppp <interface> lcp local accm [ <bitmap> | allow [on | off] ]
Display or set the ACCM (Async Control Character Map). The
default is 0xffffffff.
ppp <interface> lcp local authenticate [ pap | none | allow [on | off] ]
Display or set the authentication protocol. The default is none.
ppp <interface> lcp local compress address/control [ on | off | allow
[on | off] ]
Display or set the option to compress the address and control
fields of the PPP HLDC-like header. This is generally desirable
for slow asynchronous links, and undesirable for fast or
synchronous links. The default is off.
ppp <interface> lcp local compress protocol
[ on | off | allow [on|off]]
Display or set the option to compress the protocol field of the
PPP HLDC-like header. This is generally desirable for slow
asynchronous links, and undesirable for fast or synchronous
links. The default is off.
ppp <interface> lcp local magic [ on | off | <value> | allow [on|off] ]
Display or set the initial Magic Number. The default is off
ppp <interface> lcp local mru [ <size> | allow [on | off] ]
Display or set the Maximum Receive Unit. The default is 1500.
ppp <interface> lcp local default
Reset the options to their default values.
ppp <interface> lcp open active | passive
Wait for the physical layer to come up. If 'active', initiate
configuration negotiation. If 'passive', wait for configuration
negotiation from the remote.
ppp <interface> lcp remote ...
The 'lcp remote' commands control the configuration of the remote
side of the link. The options are identical to those of the
local side.
If an option is specified, the parameters will be used in
responses to the remote's configuration requests.
If not specified, that option will be accepted if it is allowed.
For each of these options, the 'allow' parameter will permit the
remote to specify that option in its request.
By default, all options are allowed.
ppp <interface> lcp timeout [<seconds>] Default: 3
Display or set the interval to wait between configuration or
termination attempts.
ppp <interface> lcp try ...
The 'lcp try' commands are used for the various counters.
ppp <interface> lcp try configure [<count>] Default: 10
Display or set the number of configuration requests sent.
ppp <interface> lcp try failure [<count>] Default: 5
Display or set the number of bad configuration requests allowed
from the remote.
ppp <interface> lcp try terminate [<count>] Default: 2
Display or set the number of termination requests sent before
shutdown.
ppp <interface> ipcp ...
The 'ipcp' commands are used for the Internet Protocol Control
Protocol configuration.
The 'close', 'open', 'timeout' and 'try' sub-commands are
identical to the LCP (described above).
ppp <interface> ipcp local ...
The 'ipcp local' commands control the configuration of the local
side of the link. If an option is specified, the parameters will
be used as the initial values in configuration requests. If not
specified, that option will not be requested.
For each of these options, the 'allow' parameter will permit the
remote to include that option in its response, even when the
option is not included in the request. By default, all options
are allowed.
ppp <interface> ipcp local address [ <hostid> | allow [on | off] ]
Display or set the local address for negotiation purposes. If an
address of 0 is specified, the other side of the link will supply
the address. By default, no addresses are negotiated.
ppp <interface> ipcp local compress [ tcp <slots>
[<flag>] | none | allow [on | off] ]
Display or set the compression protocol. The default is none.
The tcp <slots> specifies the number of "conversation" slots,
which must be 1 to 255. (This may be limited at compilation time
to a smaller number.) A good choice is in the range 4 to 16.
The tcp <flag> is 0 (don't compress the slot number) or 1 (OK to
compress the slot number). KA9Q NOS can handle compressed slot
numbers, so the default is 1.
ppp <interface> ipcp remote ...
The 'ipcp remote' commands control the configuration of the
remote side of the link. The options are identical to those of
the local side. If an option is specified, the parameters will
be used in responses to the remote's configuration requests. If
not specified, that option will be accepted if it is allowed.
For each of these options, the 'allow' parameter will permit the
remote to specify that option in its request. By default, all
options are allowed.
ppp <iface> pap ...
The 'pap' commands are used for the Password Authentication
Protocol configuration.
The 'timeout' and 'try' sub-commands are identical to the LCP
(described above). However, the terminate counter is unused.
ppp <interface> pap user [ <username> [<password>] ]
Display or set the <username>.
The <password> may also be set, but not displayed.
When <username> is specified, but no password is supplied, the
FTPUSERS file is searched for the password. When a username-
password pair is unknown or rejected, a session will appear at
the console to prompt for a new username-password.
ppp <interface> trace [<flags>]
Display or set the flags that control the logging of information
during PPP link configuration.
The flag values are:
0: No trace
1: Basic trace
2: General trace
Values greater than 2 are usually not compiled, and are described
in the appropriate source files where they are defined.
