PPP provides standard PPP service for both dial-in and dial-out.
Destination IP address: This is the IP address of the remote dial-in/ dial-out server.
Source IP address: The Source IP address is IP address assigned to this serial port.
IP netmask: The IP netmask defines the netmask, also known as the subnet mask, for the PPP
connection
TCP/IP compression (default=No): The setting of this field depends on whether the remote users
application requests compression.
Inactivity time (default=0 ms): This field specifies the idle time setting for auto-disconnection. A
setting of 0 ms will cause the port to remain connected even if idle.
Link quality report (default=No): Setting this field to Yes allows the NPort 6000 to disconnect a
connection if the link noise exceeds a certain threshold.
Username: This is the dial-out user ID account.
Password: This is the dial-out user password.
Authentication type (default=None): This field allows you to configure the method used, if any,
to verify a users ID and authorization.
