PPP Commands

The 

PPP

 commands enable you to use Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) in the Cajun A500. 

This functionality enables you to call into the Cajun A500 and access Telnet, TFTP, and 

the SNMP functionality. In addition, the Cajun A500 can dial out when triggered by a 

Trap/Notify event. Some of the information required for a PPP connection is hard coded. 

This information includes: 

U Maximum Receive Unit - Sets the maximum message length (1500 bytes).

U Async Map - Requires Control s and Control q to escape.

U LCP and IPCP options - Negotiates all options.

U Dial Mode - Uses dial up mode for both virtual channels. Does not use telephone 

number for dialin virtual channel but just use answer on first ring command and 

then wait for CONNECT. Does not use demand dial for dialout channel. Instead the 

Cajun A500 manages virtual channels through new 

PPP

 commands.
