Configuring PPP for connecting to a Firebox
In its default configuration, Firebox PPP accepts connections from any
standard client. The settings you use on your Management Station are the
same as if you were dialing into a typical Internet service provider, except
that you need not specify a username or password; leave these fields
blank.
OOB time-out disconnects
The Firebox starts the PPP session and waits for a valid connection from
Policy Manager on your Management Station. If none is received within
the default period of 90 seconds, the Firebox terminates the PPP session.
