PPP Commands

Cajun A500 ATM Switch User Guide

The 

ppp setdialin authentIn 

command enables you to select 

PAP

 or 

CHAP

. There is 

only one physical channel (one modem) but requirements call for two types of channel 

functionality:

U Wait for a connection

U Dialout on traps

The Cajun A500 enables the configuration of two virtual PPP channels and then 

manages them as needed. If both channels are configured, the Cajun A500 comes up 

waiting for a call to come in. Traps are saved until there are a certain number of them or 

else a trap is saved for a certain amount of time. Then the dialin channel shuts down and 

the Cajun A500 sets up the dialout channel and dials out. 

Note:  If the 

ppp setdialOut ppp ModeOut

 command is set to Option 1, then the 

PPP mode is active. The 

ppp setdialin authentIn 

command is only for 

authentication.
