The following parameters are those that you are most likely to need to customise PPP for your
appli cation. More advanced settings are covered in the next section.
Using the Web Page(s)
Name:
This parameter allows you to enter a name for this PP instance, to make it easier to identify it.
IP analysis:
This parameter is used to include or exclude IP data from this PPP instance from the analyser
trace and is equivalent to checking or un-checking the equivalent IP sources checkbox on the
Configure > Analyser page.
PPP analysis:
This parameter is used to include or exclude PPP data from this PPP instance from the analyser
trace and is equivalent to checking or un-checking the equivalent IP sources checkbox on the
Configure > Analyser page.
Answering:
If this parameter is set to “On”, the unit will answer incoming calls on the relevant PPP channel.
To prevent the unit from answering incoming calls on this PPP channel set the option to “Off”. If
PPP Answering is set to “Calling”, the unit requires the remote peer authenticate itself, but only
if the remote peer has dialled in.
Metric:
This parameter specifies the connected metric of an interface. The default metric of a connected
interface is 1. By allowing the interface to have a higher value (lower priority), static routes can
take preference to interfaces. For normal operation, leave this value unchanged.
Calling number:
This parameter is used to restrict the range of numbers from which PPP will answer incom-
ing calls, i.e. PPP will only answer a call if the trailing digits of the calling number match what is
speci fied by this parameter. For example, if Calling Number was set to 3, incoming calls from
1234563 would be answered but calls from1234567 would not.
MSN:
If Answering is “Off” this parameter is not used. This parameter provides the filter for the ISDN
Multiple Subscriber Numbering facility. It is blank by default but when set to an appropriate
value with Answering set to “On”, it will cause the unit to answer incoming calls to only tel-
ephone numbers where the trailing digits match the value selected. For example, setting MSN to
123 will prevent the unit from answering any calls to num bers that do not end in 123.
Sub-address: If Answering is “Off” this parameter is not used. This parameter provides the filter
for the ISDN sub-address facility. It is blank by default but when set to an appropriate value with
PPP Answering set to “On”, it will cause the unit to answer incom ing calls only to ISDN num-
bers where the trailing digits match the Sub-address value. For exam ple, setting the Sub-address
parameter to 123 will prevent the unit from answering any calls to numbers that do not end in
123.
CLI:
Calling Line Identification. The unit will only answer calls from numbers whose trailing digits
match what is entered in this field. The line the unit is connected to must have CLI enabled by
the tele coms provider, and the calling number cannot be withheld.
