Appendix I. PPPoA Quick Start Guide
Step Action
1
Create the data VPI/VCI by going to the R
OUTER
/C
ONFIGURATION
/WAN/
ATM menu. Use the right arrow key to enter the menu. This will create
a data PVC entry for which the appropriate VPI/VCI can be entered.
2
Select
PPP
O
ATM from the
P
ROTOCOL
field. Then right arrow over to the
PPP
O
ATM entry point (denoted by a [+]) and press Enter.
3
From the
R
OUTER
/C
ONFIGURATION
/WAN/ATM/PPP
O
ATM
menu, the
implementation-specific PPP parameters can be entered.
A typical application requires authentication, which is done on the
A
UTHENTICATION
menu. The T
X METHOD
specifies the type of PPP
authentication used to authenticate the IAD. The
T
X
U
SERNAME
and
T
X
P
ASSWORD
are those sent by the IAD to the far-side authenticator. The
are R
X USERNAME
and R
X PASSWORD
are those that the IAD expects to
receive when the IAD is authenticating the far-side. (The
R
X
M
ETHOD
is
specified in another location, discussed below.)
4
Most applications require IP to be negotiated on the link. This is done
by setting
IP M
ODE
to
O
N
on the
IP
menu. Addresses can be specified
by the user or they can be left blank if the far-side assigns the IP
addressing to the IAD during IPCP negotiation. RIP and NAT can be
turned on here, if required.
5
The
PPP
menu allows the user to specify the encapsulation mode: VC-
Mux or LLC. The remaining default settings should be sufficient for
typical applications.
6
If IP is to be negotiated on the link, IP routing must be globally enabled
in the IAD. This is done from the R
OUTER
/C
ONFIGURATION
/G
LOBAL
/IP
menu, where the
M
ODE
is set to
O
N
.
7
If the application requires the IAD to authenticate its peer, the R
X
M
ETHOD
must be specified. This is done from the R
OUTER
/
C
ONFIGURATION
/G
LOBAL
/S
ECURITY
menu, where A
UTHENTICATION
should be set to
PPP
and the M
ETHOD
is specified under the
PPP
parameter.
