Configuring a bundle
A bundle definition constitutes the top level that is used
to set up an incoming or an outgoing PPP link.
NOTE:
You must define the
physical link devices that are available for use before you can define
a bundle. See
``Configuring a link device''.
To add or modify a bundle:
-
In the PPP Manager,
select
View Bundles
to view the currently defined bundles.
-
To define a new bundle, select
Edit Add.
To change an existing bundle definition, select
it from those listed, and then select
Edit Modify.
-
Enter the following general information about the bundle:
Bundle name-
A name that will be associated with the bundle.
This name is also used as the argument to
pppattach(1M)
to bring up outgoing links manually.
Enabled-
Select Yes to enable the bundle. Select No if you
want to prevent the bundle being used but you want to preserve its
configuration.
Type-
Select how the bundle is going to be used:
Outgoing-
The bundle is to be used for outgoing connections only.
Incoming-
The bundle is to be used for incoming connections only.
Bi-directional-
The bundle is to be used for both incoming and outgoing connections.
This configuration is required to allow callback of incoming users.
NOTE:
You may only specify one remote system for outgoing connections
in a bundle.
If you want a modem to answer incoming calls, you must configure it
to do so using the
Modem Manager.
-

you want to define or change for the bundle:
There are also buttons for advanced options which allow you
to make detailed changes to the configuration if you have
expert knowledge of PPP:
-
Click on OK when you have finished configuring the bundle.
NOTE:
You will be asked to supply missing
information that you have not already
entered using the configuration buttons.
To remove a bundle definition:

In the PPP Manager,
select
View Bundles
to view the currently defined bundles.

To delete a bundle definition, select
it from those listed, and then select
Edit Delete.

Click on OK when asked to confirm that you want to delete the
bundle.
