ppp.Devices - PPP
physical device description file format
The external dialer program is run with the following arguments:
This program also allows for optional parameters:
#
#
# Devices - PPP devices file
#Dialer device speed Optional parameters
T2500-PEP cua 19200-PEP rtscts
T1600 cub 38400 rtscts
Direct
rsd0a/0
1536000 internal-clocking
Oddball rsd0a/1 64000 cua 9600 5551212
In the last line of this example, the 64Kb synchronous modem on the SnapLinks port 1 has an asynchronous dialer interface attached to the workstations port `a' The Systems line would look like
host Oddball rsd0a/1 64000 0
There must be a program (or an executable shell script) called /usr/lib/mstppp/Oddball that dials the modem when invoked as
Oddball rsd0a/1 64000 0 cua 9600 5551212
A warning message will be printed for each unrecognized optional parameter if the debug level is 2 or more.
