Configuring WAN Connections
Connection profiles
Pipeline User’s Guide Preliminary January 30, 1998 1-15
Both sides of the connection must support the selected protocol. Note that
MS-CHAP is only supported when both ends are using Windows NT 4.0.
4
Enter the password sent from the Pipeline to the remote device in the Send
PW parameter’s edit field. For example:
Send PW=*SECURE*
5
Enter the password the remote device sends to the Pipeline in the Recv PW
parameter’s edit field. For example:
Recv PW=*SECURE*
6
The values for Maximum Receive Unit (MRU) should remain at the default
unless the remote cannot support it. The value defines the maximum number
of bytes that can be received in a packet over PPP.
For example:.
MRU=1524
7
Specify if Link Quality Management (LQM) is to be used on the link, and if
so, set the minimum and maximum reporting periods. Both sides of the
connection must agree to use the utility.
For example:
LQM=No
LQM Min=600
LQM Max=600
8
If appropriate, turn on data compression.
For example:
Link Comp=Stac
VJ Comp=Yes

MP, MPP, and MP+ connections
MP supports multi-channel links, but not Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA).
The base-channel count specifies the number of channels used for a connection.
In addition, MP requires that all channels in the connection share the same phone
number (that is, the channels on the answering side of the connection must be in
a hunt group). MP is an extension of PPP that supports the ordering of data
packets across multiple channels.
