b. Enable override to override the default PPP configuration and only use the custom
configuration file:
(config)> serial port1 ppp_dialin custom override true
(config)>
If override is not enabled, the custom PPP configuration file is used in addition to the
default configuration.
c. Paste or type the configuration data in the format of a pppd options file:
(config)> serial port1 ppp_dialin custom config_file data
(config)>
where data are one or more pppd command line options. Because the options are passed
directly to the pppd command line, they should all be entered on a single line. For
example:
(config)> serial port1 ppp_dialin custom config_file "debug lcp-echo-
interval 10 lcp-echo-failure 2"
(config)>
15. (Optional) Configure a script that will be run to prepare the link before PPP negotiations are
started:
a. Enable the use of a connection script.
(config)> serial port1 ppp_dialin connect enable true
(config)>
b. Set the name of the script:
(config)> serial port1 ppp_dialin connect script filename
(config)>
Scripts are located in the /etc/config/serial directory. An example script, windows_dun.sh
is provided.
Example windows_dun.sh file:
#!/bin/sh
# Example connect script for connecting from a PC using a Windows
dial-up
# networking connection with built-in standard 33600 bps modem driver
and phone
# number 123.
# The shell's 'read' builtin breaks on newline, so translate incoming
carriage-
# return to newline, and outgoing newline to carriage-return-newline.
