Point-To-Point Protocol (PPP) is an alternate method that may be used to communicate with
the F3400/F1000. PPP can only be used through a modem, over a phone line. The F3400/F1000
and the user’s computer must both be configured correctly in order for PPP to work.
7.1. Configuring the F3400/F1000
1 Access the F3400/F1000's Web interface.
2 Click the Configuration link. Enter the correct user name and password (if necessary).
3 From the Configuration Menu, click on the System link.
4 On the System Configuration page, click on the IP Configuration Menu link.
The IP Configuration page lists the IP addresses configured on the F3400/F1000. Both the
PPP Server and PPP Assignment fields need to be completed in order for PPP to work.
PPP Server: Assigns an IP address to the F3400/F1000 for PPP communications. Any IP
address may be used, as long as it is not in the same subnet as the F3400/F1000's primary IP
address. A good example of an IP address to use is:
192.168.1.2
. Use this address to view the
F3400/F1000 Web interface through a browser when communicating with the F3400/F1000
through PPP.
PPP Assignment: Tells the F3400/F1000 what IP address to assign to the PC the user dials in
from. Again, any IP address may be used, as long as it is in the same subnet as the PPP Server
IP address. A good example of an IP address to use is:
192.168.1.3
