Chapter 7 Establishing Switch Access

Establishing a PPP via Modem Connection with the P460 (Sideband)
Overview
The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) provides a Layer 2 method for transporting multi-
protocol datagrams over point-to-point links. Here only IP datagrams will be
exchanged, over a RS232 serial connection, between the P460 supervisor module
and a remote peer (such as Ethernet) via a modem and the telephone lines. This
provides remote access the sideband management interface of a P460 via a modem.
