PPP Line Parameters
When you enable PPP on a circuit (the default), PPP automatically sets the line
parameters shown in T
able 10-4. These parameters are the same for both
synchronous and asynchronous connections.
Depending on the configuration, you may have to specify explicitly certain other
parameters. For more information on these parameters, refer to Getting Started
with Site Manager, depending on your platform.
Configuring IP to Run over PPP Interfaces
When you enable numbered Internet Protocol (IP) support on a PPP interface, you
must also configure an adjacent host entry for the peer router. See Configuring IP
Services for instructions on configuring an adjacent host entry.
Detecting Loopback Conditions
As part of its network integrity checking, PPP tests for a loopback condition in
which, effectively, it is talking to itself and not communicating with the network.
Normally, you would want this feature enabled. For test purposes, however, you
can disable this loopback detection feature by using the Technician Interface.
After disabling this parameter, you must explicitly set it to Enable to reenable
loopback checking. See “Disabling Loopback Checking” in Chapter 11 for
instructions on how to set this parameter.
