The following controls and data appear in the Status pane:

LCP - Send LCP echo requests to 
peer

When this check box is checked, your appliance will send 
LCP echo requests, allowing PPP to know that the PPP link 
is active even when there is no network traffic.

Exclusive route - Route all data 
through PPP when dialed-out

If this check box is checked, all data will be routed via the 
PPP interface during PPP dial out sessions. 
When this check box is not checked, the Ethernet interface 
will be used for communication with hosts that are on the 
same subnet as the appliance. However, all communication 
with hosts not on the same subnet as the appliance will be 
carried out using the PPP interface.

Debug - Send debug messages to 
syslog

When checked, debug messages will be forwarded to the 
syslog host specified in the Log task (for more information 
see “Log” on page 116).

For modems that use a SIM (subscriber identification 
module), specify the PIN that is used to unlock the SIM.
Note: A SIM may or may not require a PIN in order to 
function. For modems that do not have a SIM this field must 
be blank.
