Configuring the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)

Connections with Telebit NetBlazer 1.5

Dialing into a system running Telebit NetBlazer 1.5 from a UNIX system:

  1. Configure the NetBlazer to receive the call from the UNIX system:

    The NetBlazer may be set up as if the UNIX system were a remote ``dynamic-interface'' NetBlazer, using the PPP encapsulation protocol in packet mode.

    Configure the NetBlazer as described in Chapter 5 of the NetBlazer Installation Guide, noting particularly the discussion of the ipdial command. When you are prompted for Name of remote(other) system:, enter the name of the UNIX system. Use PPP rather than SLIP. Set mtu=1500. Make a note of the dial-in user password you enter for use by the UNIX system; you will need to include this password in the UNIX system's /usr/lib/uucp/System entry that describes how to dial into this NetBlazer (see next step).

  2. Configure the UNIX system to call the NetBlazer:

    In your system's /usr/lib/uucp/Systems file, set the login provided by the login portion of the chat script to the UNIX system name. Make sure you set the password to the same one you entered for the dial-in user on the NetBlazer (see step 1, above). You must include the noipaddr option in the /etc/ppphosts file, because NetBlazer rejects IP address negotiation.


Dialing into a UNIX system from a system running Telebit NetBlazer 1.5:

  1. Configure the UNIX system to receive the call from NetBlazer:

    Include the noipaddr option in the /etc/ppphosts file because NetBlazer 1.5 rejects IP address negotiation.

  2. Configure the NetBlazer to call the UNIX system by adding the following entry to the NetBlazer's CHAT.TXT file:
       # for connecting to a SCO UNIX machine.
       :unix
       s1,20,30,2,\n\r
       e2,20,30,3,in:
       e3,3,4,4,$6%~&
       u4,5,100,5
       s5,5,100,6,\n\r
       e6,20,30,7,word:
       e7,3,8,8,$6%~&
       p8,5,100,9
       s9,5,100,99,\n\r
       

    s30,20,30,31,\n\r e31,20,30,32,in: e32,3,33,33,$6%~& u33,5,100,34 s34,5,100,35,\n\r e35,20,100,36,word: e36,3,37,37,$6%~& p37,5,100,38 s38,5,100,99,\n\r

    r99,0

    Reboot the NetBlazer to effect any changes to the CHAT.TXT file. When you configure the NetBlazer's dynamic interface to call the UNIX system (as described in "Configure the NetBlazer to receive the call from the UNIX system", above), specify unix for the chat script instead of the default ics.
