Example of a PPP connection
Figure 4-1 shows the MAX unit with a PPP connection to a remote user who is running
Windows 95 with a TCP/IP stack and PPP dialup software. The dial-in user has a modem, so
the call is asynchronous and uses only one channel.
Figure 4-1. A PPP connection
To configure this PPP connection:
1 Make sure the Answer profile enables PPP encapsulation and has the appropriate routing,
bridging, and authentication settings. For example:
Ethernet
Answer
Encaps
PPP=Yes
PPP Options
Route IP=Yes
Route IPX=Yes
Bridge=Yes
Recv Auth=Either
2 Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
3 Open an Ethernet > Connections > Connection profile.
4 Specify the name of the remote device and activate the profile. For example:
Ethernet
Connections
tommy
Station=tommy
Active=Yes
Note: Make sure that you specify the Station name exactly, including case.
5 Select PPP encapsulation and set the appropriate PPP Options. For example:
Encaps=PPP
Encaps Options
Send Auth=CHAP
Send PW=remotepw/A
Recv PW=localpw
The Send Auth parameter should be set to CHAP or PAP. Both sides of the connection
must support the selected authentication protocol and the selected compression methods.
6 Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
Following is a comparable RADIUS profile:
