or
ppp iface chap user [username] [password] (for CHAP)
config save
where iface is the modem interface that you are using to connect to the ISP (modem0, modem1, etc.)
The [username] and [password] are the PAP/CHAP authentication name and password. The config save
command will save these PPP commands to the Router’s boot diskette, and these commands will be
executed automatically after every reboot.
If your ISP requires your Router to authenticate the ISP’s system, then during the configuration
process, answer PAP or CHAP when asked for authentication, and enter the name and password that you
will use to authenticate your ISP’s system, when asked for the name and link password of the remote
system that you are connecting to.
Sample dialer script
If your ISP is using a different system, choose
5) Other LAN to LAN
from your configuration options. You will later be prompted for the name of a dialer script file. Often
you can obtain from your ISP a sample dialer script that you can modify to create a dialer script file for
the Router. Included on the Router diskette is a sample dialer script file called other.dcf, which you can
modify to create your own dialer script, or use as a template.
Example dialer script:
send “AT\r”
wait 1000 “OK”
send $PHONE
connect
send “\r\r\r” 100
wait 10000 “login:”
send $LOGIN_NAME
wait 10000 “password:”
send $LOGIN_PWD
wait 10000
send “ppp\r”
status up
The scripts will be different in different systems. For example, your ISP’s system may ask for
“username:” instead of “login:”, as in the example. In that case the line
wait 10000 “login:”
in the script above would be substituted by:
wait 10000 “username:”
In the same way, the system may prompt for a password in different ways.
The variables $PHONE, $LOGIN_NAME, $LOGIN_PWD in the script above will contain the values of
the phone number, your username and password that you entered when you configured the Router. You
can use these variables for the phone number, username, and password in your dialer script, or you can
write their values directly. For example, you can substitute the line
