Configuring Outbound PPP Connections: Command Line
Chapter 7 Configuring PPP 32
6. If you used the IP address pool option in the previous step, specify the following subnetwork mask using the
following command: (a mask of 255.255.255.255 is required)
set user ipmask=255.255.255.255
7. To configure an IP address for the local end of the PPP connection, enter the following command:
set user name=name localipaddr=ip-address
where name is the user’s name and ip-address is the IP address to assign to the local end of the PPP connec-
tion. This address must be unique. That is, no other user can be assigned this address and it cannot be the IP
address for the Ethernet interface.
Example: set user name=pppin localipadr=199.1.1.2
Configuring Inbound PPP Connections: Example
This example shows a very simple PPP inbound configuration. Here are some points on this configuration:
• The port is set up for inbound connections (dev=min).
• RTS and CTS are used for flow control.
• The baud rate has been set to 115000 bps.
• The user has been configured to use an IP address pool
set ports range=3 device=min
set flow range=3 ixon=off ixoff=off rts=on cts=on
set line range=3 baud=115000
set user name=pppin protocol=ppp netservice=on defaultaccess=netservice
set user name=pppin ipaddr=ippool
set user name=pppin localipadr=199.1.1.2
Configuring Outbound PPP Connections: Command Line
This section describes how to configure outbound PPP connections. Use it to configure outbound only
connections or to configure the outbound portion of bidirectional connections.
Note: CHAP authentication works between two Digi devices. CHAP will be negotiated to PAP for all other
connections
Procedure
1. To configure the port for a modem, enter the following command:
set ports range=range dev=device
where range is the port or ports and device is one of the following:
• mout for outbound only modem connections
• mio for bidirectional modem connections.
See the set ports command in the Digi One/PortServer TS Command Reference for more information.
Example: set ports range=3 device=mout
2. To configure flow control for the ports, enter the following command:
set flow range=range flow-control=scheme
