Establishing a SLIP Session
Enabling a SLIP Session from the PC
The following example shows how a nonprivileged user could configure and start a
SLIP session. The example assumes that the port characteristics are configured as
shown this example. The CHANGE PORT SLIP MTU command is optional.
Local> CHANGE PORT SLIP HOST 195.1.1.1 SLIP MTU 800
Local> CHANGE PORT SLIP MTU 800
Local> CONNECT SLIP
Local-561-Starting SLIP or PPP datalink session
If you previously configured the port with an Internet address and an MTU, then you
only need to use the CONNECT SLIP command.
After Making a Connection
Once you enter the CONNECT SLIP command, the access server expects IP packets
from the PC formatted as SLIP frames. Use the appropriate command to exit from
terminal emulation mode on your PC and start the desired IP application program.
To transfer files, use any file transfer program that supports SLIP. You do not need to
configure data transparency on the access server.
