Configuring PPP mode
Users who are logged into the terminal server in terminal mode can invoke an asynchronous
PPP session by using the PPP command to initiate PPP mode. Or, even if users do not have
access to the command line, they can begin an asynchronous PPP session from an application
such as Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Explorer. For example, if a user initiates a session
from Windows 95, which has a resident TCP/IP stack, the asynchronous PPP session can begin
immediately, without the user entering the terminal-server interface. The following parameters
in Ethernet > Mod Config > TServ Options configure PPP mode:

Example of PPP configuration
The configuration in this example enables PPP direct mode. To implement the configuration:
1
Open the Ethernet > Mod Config > TServ Options profile.
2
Enable the use of the PPP command in terminal mode.
3
Enable PPP direct negotiation:

PPP=Yes
PPP Direct=Yes

Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.
Configuring Serial Line IP (SLIP) mode
If you enable SLIP mode in the terminal server, users can initiate a SLIP session and then run
an application, such as FTP, in that session. SLIP mode configuration uses the following
parameters in Ethernet > Mod Config > TServ Options:
an application, such as FTP, in that session. SLIP mode configuration uses the following
parameters in Ethernet > Mod Config > TServ Options:
Parameter
Specifies
PPP
The initiation of PPP sessions.
PPP Delay
The number of seconds the terminal server waits before transitioning
to packet-mode processing.
to packet-mode processing.
PPP Direct
Whether to start PPP negotiation immediately after a user enters the
PPP command in the terminal-server interface or to wait to receive a
PPP packet from an application. (Some applications expect to receive
a packet first.)
PPP command in the terminal-server interface or to wait to receive a
PPP packet from an application. (Some applications expect to receive

The selections are None (no message), PPP Mode, and PPP Session.
The selections are None (no message), PPP Mode, and PPP Session.
Parameter
Specifies
SLIP
