Advanced protocol options
The following options control the negotiation of the IP,
CCP, and LCP protocols
during the configuration phase of establishing a PPP connection.
Once configured, these values are unique to a particular
protocol that you configure for a bundle or link device:
Maximum number of failures-
The maximum number of NAKs that can be sent without
an ACK being sent before PPP assumes that
configuration has failed.
Maximum number of configuration retries-
The maximum number of retries allowed for configuration requests.
Maximum number of termination retries-
The maximum number of retries allowed for termination requests.
Restart timer period-
The time allowed for responses to configuration-request and
termination-request packets.
Executable called on interface state change-
The pathname of a program (or script) that will be run if
a PPP interface is brought up, dropped, added, or deleted.
This program can be used to add or delete the default router
from the routing table, or to change the definition of which
DNS servers should be used.
The default program is /usr/lib/ppp/psm/ipexec.sh.
See
ppptalk(1M)
for more information.
NOTE:
This option is only displayed for advanced configuration of the IP
protocol.
