set ppp module [vccn] lost-echoes-max integer
Specifies the maximum number of lost echoes the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should tolerate before
bringing down the PPP connection. The integer argument can be any number from between 1 and 20.
set ppp module [vccn] failures-max integer
Specifies the maximum number of Configure-NAK messages the PPP module can send without having
sent a Configure-ACK message. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and 20.
set ppp module [vccn] configure-max integer
Specifies the maximum number of unacknowledged configuration requests that your Motorola Netopia®
Gateway will send. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and 20.
set ppp module [vccn] terminate-max integer
Specifies the maximum number of unacknowledged termination requests that your Motorola Netopia®
Gateway will send before terminating the PPP link. The integer argument can be any number between 1
and 10.
set ppp module [vccn] restart-timer integer
Specifies the number of seconds the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should wait before retransmitting a
configuration or termination request. The integer argument can be any number between 1 and 30.
set ppp module [vccn] connection-type { instant-on | always-on }
Specifies whether a PPP connection is maintained by the Motorola Netopia® Gateway when it is unused
for extended periods. If you specify always-on, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway never shuts down the
PPP link. If you specify instant-on, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway shuts down the PPP link after
the number of seconds specified in the time-out setting (below) if no traffic is moving over the circuit.
set ppp module [vccn] time-out integer
If you specified a connection type of instant-on, specifies the number of seconds, in the range 30 -
3600, with a default value of 300, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should wait for communication
activity before terminating the PPP link.
Configuring Port Authentication. You can use the following command to specify how your Motorola
Netopia® Gateway should respond when it receives an authentication request from a remote peer.
The settings for port authentication on the local Motorola Netopia® Gateway must match the authenti-
cation that is expected by the remote peer. For example, if the remote peer requires CHAP authentica-
tion and has a name and CHAP secret for the Motorola Netopia® Gateway, you must enable CHAP and
specify the same name and secret on the Motorola Netopia® Gateway before the link can be estab-
lished.
