This should show three routes, something like this:
Kernel routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask
Flags Metric Ref Use
iface
129.67.1.165 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 6
ppp0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 129.67.1.165 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 6298
ppp0
If your output looks similar but doesn’t have the destination 0.0.0.0 line (which refers to the
default route used for connections), you may have run pppd without the ‘defaultroute’ option. At
this point you can try using Telnet, ftp, or finger, bearing in mind that you’ll have to use numeric
IP addresses unless you’ve set up /etc/resolv.conf correctly.
Setting up a Machine for Incoming PPP Connections
This first example applies to using a modem, and requiring authorization with a username and
password.
pppd/dev/ttyM0 115200 crtscts modem 192.168.16.1:192.168.16.2 login auth
You should also add the following line to the file /etc/ppp/pap-secrets:
* * ““ *
The first star (*) lets everyone login. The second star (*) lets every host connect. The pair of
double quotation marks (““) is to use the file /etc/passwd to check the password. The last star (*)
is to let any IP connect.
The following example does not check the username and password:
pppd/dev/ttyM0 115200 crtscts modem 192.168.16.1:192.168.16.2
PPPoE
1. Connect the W311/321/341’s LAN port to an ADSL modem with a cross-over cable, HUB, or
switch.
2. Log in to the W311/321/341 as the root user.
3. Edit the file /etc/ppp/chap-secrets and add the following:
“[email protected]” * “password” *
“[email protected]” is the username obtained from the ISP to log in to the ISP account.
“password” is the corresponding password for the account.
