SHARK™ IAD User's Guide
Async map
Specifies the asynchronous control character map for the PPP link.
The default value for the map argument is 0x00000000
Max failures
Specifies the maximum number of Configure-NAK messages the PPP
module can send without having sent a Configure-ACK message. The
integer argument can be any number between 1 and 20. The default
value for the maximum failure count is 10.
Max configure
Specifies the maximum number of unacknowledged configuration
requests that your SHARK™ IAD will send. The integer argument can
be any number between 1 and 10. The default value for the max
configure
argument is 10.
Max Terminate
Specifies the maximum number of unacknowledged termination
requests that your SHARK™ IAD will send before terminating the PPP
link. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and 10. The
default value for the max terminate argument is 2.
PAP
Authentication
Specifies whether PAP authentication is enabled for a port. By default,
PAP authentication is turned off. PAP authentication must be enabled
before you can enter other PAP information. If you disable PAP
authentication and save the modified configuration, your SHARK™
IAD retains its PAP setting.
PAP Username
Specifies the name the SHARK™ IAD sends in a PAP response
packet. The pap_name argument is 1- 32 alphanumeric characters.
The information you enter must match the PAP username configured in
the PPP peer's authentication database.
PAP Password
Specifies the password the SHARK™ IAD sends when a PPP peer
sends a PAP authentication request. The password argument is 1-32
alphanumeric characters. The information you enter must match the
PAP password used by the PPP peer.
CHAP
Specifies whether CHAP authentication is enabled. By default, CHAP
authentication is turned off. CHAP authentication must be enabled
before you can enter other CHAP information. If CHAP is turned on,
it will be the first authentication method offered to the remote peer
during link negotiation. If you turn port authentication off and peer
authentication on, the PPP software still uses the port authentication
chap-name and pap-name for authentication. As a result, the port
authentication names for PAP and CHAP must be identical to the peer
names for your SHARK™ IAD on the remote peer. If you do not
configure a chap-name or pap-name, then the authentication packets
sent by the local peer will have blank name values. This may cause
authentication to fail for some PPP implementations.
CHAP Username
Specifies the name the SHARK™ IAD sends in a CHAP response
packet. The chap name argument is 1-32 alphanumeric characters.
The information you enter must match the CHAP username configured
in the remote PPP peer's authentication database.
CHAP Password
Specifies the CHAP secret for CHAP authentication. The secret
argument is 1-32 alphanumeric characters. The information you enter
must match the CHAP secret used by the PPP peer.
Magic Number-
on/off
Enables or disables LCP magic number negotiation. By default, magic
number negotiation is turned on.
