Options

accm

Specifies the ACCM (Asynchronous Control Character Map) characters that should be

escaped from the data stream. This is entered as a 32-bit hexadecimal number with each
bit specifying whether or not the corresponding character should be escaped. The bits

are specified as the most significant bit first and are numbered 31-0. Thus if bit 17 is
set, the 17th character should be escaped, that is, 0x11 (XON). So entering the value

000a0000 will cause the control characters 0x11 (XON) and 0x13 (XOFF) to be

escaped on the link, thus allowing the use of XON/XOFF (software) flow control. If
you have selected

Soft Flow Control

on the

Line

, you must enter a value of at least

000a0000

for the

ACCM

. The default value is

00000000

, which means no characters

will be escaped.

address-comp

This determines whether compression of the

PPP Address

and

Control

fields take

place on the link. The default is

On

. For most applications this should be enabled.

auth-tmout

The timeout, in minutes, during which successful PAP or CHAP authentication must

take place (when

PAP

or

CHAP

is turned

On

). If the timer expires before the remote

end has been authenticated successfully, the link will be terminated.

challenge-interval

The interval, in minutes, for which the IOLAN will issue a CHAP re-challenge to the
remote end. During CHAP authentication, an initial CHAP challenge takes place, and is

unrelated to CHAP re-challenges. The initial challenge takes place even if re-challenges

are disabled. Some PPP client software does not work with CHAP re-challenges, so you
might want to leave the parameter disabled in the IOLAN. The default value is

0

(zero),

meaning CHAP re-challenge is disabled.

cr-retry

The maximum number of times a

configure request

packet will be re-sent before

the link is terminated.

cr-timeout

The maximum time, in seconds, that LCP (Link Control Protocol) will wait before it
considers a

configure request

packet to have been lost.
