.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
This is a user process
|
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
|
|
|
software package. Normally,
|
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
is implemented as a part of the kernel (e.g. as managed by
|
|
|
|
.Xr pppd 8 )
|
|
|
|
and it's thus somewhat hard to debug and/or modify its behaviour.
|
|
|
|
However, in this implementation
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
|
|
|
is done as a user process with the help of the
|
1995-05-24 05:51:29 +00:00
|
|
|
tunnel device driver (tun).
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.Sh Major Features
|
|
|
|
.Bl -diag
|
|
|
|
.It Provides interactive user interface.
|
1995-05-21 17:32:35 +00:00
|
|
|
Using its command mode, the user can
|
|
|
|
easily enter commands to establish the connection with the remote end, check
|
1995-05-24 05:51:29 +00:00
|
|
|
the status of connection and close the connection. All functions can
|
1995-05-21 17:32:35 +00:00
|
|
|
also be optionally password protected for security.
|
1996-12-22 17:29:33 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Supports both manual and automatic dialing.
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
Interactive mode has a
|
|
|
|
.Dq term
|
|
|
|
command which enables you to talk to your modem directly. When your
|
|
|
|
modem is connected to the remote peer and it starts to talk
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
.Em PPP ,
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
detects it and switches to packet mode automatically. Once you have
|
|
|
|
determined the proper sequence for connecting with the remote host, you
|
|
|
|
can write a chat script to define the necessary dialing and login
|
|
|
|
procedure for later convenience.
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Supports on-demand dialup capability.
|
1997-11-11 22:58:14 +00:00
|
|
|
By using
|
|
|
|
.Fl auto
|
|
|
|
mode,
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
will act as a daemon and wait for a packet to be sent over the
|
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
1995-05-21 17:32:35 +00:00
|
|
|
link. When this happens, the daemon automatically dials and establishes the
|
1995-02-26 12:18:08 +00:00
|
|
|
connection.
|
1997-11-11 22:58:14 +00:00
|
|
|
In almost the same manner
|
|
|
|
.Fl ddial
|
|
|
|
mode (direct-dial mode) also automatically dials and establishes the
|
|
|
|
connection. However, it differs in that it will dial the remote site
|
|
|
|
any time it detects the link is down, even if there are no packets to be
|
|
|
|
sent. This mode is useful for full-time connections where we worry less
|
|
|
|
about line charges and more about being connected full time.
|
|
|
|
A third
|
|
|
|
.Fl dedicated
|
|
|
|
mode is also available. This mode is targeted at a dedicated link
|
|
|
|
between two machines.
|
|
|
|
.Nm Ppp
|
|
|
|
will never voluntarily quit from dedicated mode - you must send it the
|
|
|
|
.Dq quit all
|
|
|
|
command via its diagnostic socket. A
|
|
|
|
.Dv SIGHUP
|
|
|
|
will force an LCP renegotiation, and a
|
|
|
|
.Dv SIGTERM
|
|
|
|
will force it to exit.
|
1998-08-07 18:42:51 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Supports client callback.
|
|
|
|
.Nm Ppp
|
|
|
|
can use either the standard LCP callback protocol or the Microsoft
|
|
|
|
CallBack Control Protocol (ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/developr/rfc/cbcp.txt).
|
1996-12-12 14:39:47 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Supports packet aliasing.
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
Packet aliasing (a.k.a. IP masquerading) allows computers on a
|
|
|
|
private, unregistered network to access the Internet. The
|
1996-12-12 14:39:47 +00:00
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
|
|
|
host acts as a masquerading gateway. IP addresses as well as TCP and
|
|
|
|
UDP port numbers are aliased for outgoing packets and de-aliased for
|
|
|
|
returning packets.
|
1996-12-22 17:29:33 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Supports background PPP connections.
|
|
|
|
In background mode, if
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
successfully establishes the connection, it will become a daemon.
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
Otherwise, it will exit with an error. This allows the setup of
|
|
|
|
scripts that wish to execute certain commands only if the connection
|
|
|
|
is successfully established.
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Supports server-side PPP connections.
|
1997-06-09 23:38:38 +00:00
|
|
|
In direct mode,
|
|
|
|
.nm
|
|
|
|
acts as server which accepts incoming
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
1997-06-09 23:38:38 +00:00
|
|
|
connections on stdin/stdout.
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Supports PAP and CHAP authentication.
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
With PAP or CHAP, it is possible to skip the Unix style
|
|
|
|
.Xr login 1
|
1998-05-29 18:32:41 +00:00
|
|
|
procedure, and use the
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
1998-04-03 19:26:29 +00:00
|
|
|
protocol for authentication instead. If the peer requests Microsoft
|
|
|
|
CHAP authentication and
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
is compiled with DES support, an appropriate MD4/DES response will be
|
|
|
|
made.
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Supports Proxy Arp.
|
|
|
|
When
|
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
|
|
|
is set up as server, you can also configure it to do proxy arp for your
|
|
|
|
connection.
|
|
|
|
.It Supports packet filtering.
|
1998-03-16 22:52:54 +00:00
|
|
|
User can define four kinds of filters: the
|
|
|
|
.Em in
|
|
|
|
filter for incoming packets, the
|
|
|
|
.Em out
|
|
|
|
filter for outgoing packets, the
|
|
|
|
.Em dial
|
|
|
|
filter to define a dialing trigger packet and the
|
|
|
|
.Em alive
|
|
|
|
filter for keeping a connection alive with the trigger packet.
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Tunnel driver supports bpf.
|
|
|
|
The user can use
|
|
|
|
.Xr tcpdump 1
|
|
|
|
to check the packet flow over the
|
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
|
|
|
link.
|
1996-12-22 17:29:33 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Supports PPP over TCP capability.
|
1998-04-03 19:24:07 +00:00
|
|
|
If a device name is specified as
|
|
|
|
.Em host Ns No : Ns Em port ,
|
1998-01-29 00:44:16 +00:00
|
|
|
.Nm
|
1998-04-03 19:24:07 +00:00
|
|
|
will open a TCP connection for transporting data rather than using a
|
|
|
|
conventional serial device.
|
|
|
|
.It Supports IETF draft Predictor-1 and DEFLATE compression.
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.Nm
|
1998-04-03 19:24:07 +00:00
|
|
|
supports not only VJ-compression but also Predictor-1 and DEFLATE compression.
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
Normally, a modem has built-in compression (e.g. v42.bis) and the system
|
1996-12-22 17:29:33 +00:00
|
|
|
may receive higher data rates from it as a result of such compression.
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
While this is generally a good thing in most other situations, this
|
|
|
|
higher speed data imposes a penalty on the system by increasing the
|
|
|
|
number of serial interrupts the system has to process in talking to the
|
1998-04-03 19:24:07 +00:00
|
|
|
modem and also increases latency. Unlike VJ-compression, Predictor-1 and
|
|
|
|
DEFLATE compression pre-compresses
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.Em all
|
1998-04-03 19:24:07 +00:00

|
|
|
|
minimum.
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Supports Microsoft's IPCP extensions.
|
1996-10-06 13:32:37 +00:00
|
|
|
Name Server Addresses and NetBIOS Name Server Addresses can be negotiated
|
|
|
|
with clients using the Microsoft
|
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
|
|
|

|
1998-05-29 18:32:41 +00:00
|
|
|
.It Supports Multi-link PPP
|
1998-05-18 23:24:24 +00:00
|
|
|
It is possible to configure
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
to open more than one physical connection to the peer, combining the
|
|
|
|
bandwidth of all links for better throughput.

The
|
|
|
|
.Sq ON
|
|
|
|
part of your prompt should always be in upper case. If it is in lower
|
|
|
|
case, it means that you must supply a password using the
|
|
|
|
.Dq passwd
|
|
|
|
command. This only ever happens if you connect to a running version of
|

and have not authenticated yourself using the correct password.

You can start by specifying the device name, speed and parity for your modem,
|
1997-06-09 23:38:38 +00:00
|
|
|
and whether CTS/RTS signalling should be used (CTS/RTS is used by
|
|
|
|
default). If your hardware does not provide CTS/RTS lines (as
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
may happen when you are connected directly to certain PPP-capable
|
1997-06-09 23:38:38 +00:00
|
|
|
terminal servers),
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
will never send any output through the port; it waits for a signal
|
|
|
|
which never comes. Thus, if you have a direct line and can't seem
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
to make a connection, try turning CTS/RTS off:

If it does not, it's possible that the peer is waiting for your end to

start negotiating. To force

to start sending PPP configuration packets to the peer, use the

a peer connection. If only some of the three Ps go uppercase, wait 'till

either everything is uppercase or lowercase. If they revert to lowercase,
|
|
|

it means that

couldn't successfully negotiate with the peer. This is probably because
|
|

your PAP or CHAP authentication name or key is incorrect. A good first step

for troubleshooting at this point would be to

to be down.
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
If the connect fails, the default behaviour is to wait 30 seconds
|
1995-10-08 14:57:32 +00:00
|
|
|
and then attempt to connect when another outgoing packet is detected.
|

is the number of seconds to wait before attempting

|
to connect again. If the argument is
|
|

the delay period is a random value between 0 and 30 seconds.
|
1997-04-14 23:48:20 +00:00
|
|
|
.Sq Nseconds
|
|

is the number of seconds to wait before attempting
|
|
|
|
to dial the next number in a list of numbers (see the
|
|
|
|
.Dq set phone
|
|
|
|
command). The default is 3 seconds. Again, if the argument is

the delay period is a random value between 0 and 30 seconds.
|
1995-10-08 14:57:32 +00:00
|
|

.Sq dial_attempts
|

1997-04-12 22:58:41 +00:00

|
detected with a 3 second delay between each number and a 10 second
|
|
|
|
delay after all numbers have been tried. If multiple phone numbers
|
|
|
|
are specified, the total number of attempts is still 4 (it does not
|
|
|
|
attempt each number 4 times).
|
1995-10-08 14:57:32 +00:00
|
|
|
Modifying the dial delay is very useful when running
|
|
|
|
.Nm

|
in demand
|
|
|
|
dial mode on both ends of the link. If each end has the same timeout,

both ends wind up calling each other at the same time if the link
|
|
|
|
drops and both ends have packets queued.
|
1997-04-21 01:02:02 +00:00
|
|
|
At some locations, the serial link may not be reliable, and carrier
|
|
|
|
may be lost at inappropriate times. It is possible to have

.Nm

gives up. The default value of ntries is zero (no reconnect). Care
|
1997-04-21 01:02:02 +00:00
|

should be taken with this option. If the local timeout is slightly
|

longer than the remote timeout, the reconnect feature will always be

triggered (up to the given number of times) after the remote side

times out and hangs up.

1997-05-19 02:00:16 +00:00

.Sh RECEIVING INCOMING PPP CONNECTIONS (Method 2)
|
1998-04-16 18:30:54 +00:00
|
|
|
This method differs in that we use
|
|
|
|
.Nm ppp
|
|
|
|
to authenticate the connection rather than
|
|
|
|
.Xr login 1 :

Create an entry in

|
|
|
|
for each incoming user:
|
1996-10-06 13:32:37 +00:00
|
|
|
.Bd -literal

Now, as soon as
|
|
|

.Xr getty 8
|
|
|
|
detects a ppp connection (by recognising the HDLC frame headers), it runs
|
|
|
|
.Dq /usr/local/bin/ppplogin .
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
It is
|
|
|
|
.Em VITAL
|
|
|
|
that either PAP or CHAP are enabled as above. If they are not, you are
|
|
|
|
allowing anybody to establish ppp session with your machine
|
|
|
|
.Em without
|
|
|
|
a password, opening yourself up to all sorts of potential attacks.
|
1998-01-05 01:35:20 +00:00
|
|
|
.Sh AUTHENTICATING INCOMING CONNECTIONS
|
|
|
|
Normally, the receiver of a connection requires that the peer
|
1998-05-29 18:32:41 +00:00
|
|
|
authenticates itself. This may be done using
|
1998-01-05 01:35:20 +00:00
|
|
|
.Xr login 1 ,
|
|
|
|
but alternatively, you can use PAP or CHAP. CHAP is the more secure
|
|
|
|
of the two, but some clients may not support it. Once you decide which
|
|
|
|
you wish to use, add the command
|
|
|
|
.Sq enable chap
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
.Sq enable pap
|
1998-05-29 18:32:41 +00:00
|
|
|
to the relevant section of
|
1998-01-05 01:35:20 +00:00
|
|
|
.Pa ppp.conf .
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
You must then configure the
|
|
|
|
.Pa /etc/ppp/ppp.secret
|
|
|
|
file. This file contains one line per possible client, each line
|
|
|
|
containing up to four fields:
|
|
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
|
|
name key [hisaddr [label]]
|
|
|
|
.Ed
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
.Ar name
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
|
.Ar key
|
1998-05-29 18:32:41 +00:00
|
|
|
specify the client as expected. If
|
|
|
|
.Ar key
|
|
|
|
is
|
|
|
|
.Dq \&*
|
|
|
|
and PAP is being used,
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
will look up the password database
|
|
|
|
.Pq Xr passwd 5
|
|
|
|
when authenticating. If the client does not offer a suitable
|
1998-01-05 01:35:20 +00:00
|
|
|
response based on any
|
|
|
|
.Ar name No / Ar key
|
|
|
|
combination in
|
|
|
|
.Pa ppp.secret ,
|
|
|
|
authentication fails.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
If authentication is successful,
|
|
|
|
.Ar hisaddr
|
|
|
|
.Pq if specified
|
|
|
|
is used when negotiating IP numbers. See the
|
|
|
|
.Dq set ifaddr
|
|
|
|
command for details.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
If authentication is successful and
|
|
|
|
.Ar label
|
|
|
|
is specified, the current system label is changed to match the given
|
|
|
|
.Ar label .
|
|
|
|
This will change the subsequent parsing of the
|
|
|
|
.Pa ppp.linkup
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
|
.Pa ppp.linkdown
|

.Sh PPP OVER TCP (a.k.a Tunnelling)
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
Instead of running
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
over a serial link, it is possible to
|
|
|
|
use a TCP connection instead by specifying a host and port as the
|
1997-06-13 00:04:58 +00:00
|
|
|
device:
|
1998-08-07 18:42:51 +00:00

Instead of opening a serial device,
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
will open a TCP connection to the given machine on the given
|
1997-06-13 00:04:58 +00:00
|
|
|
socket. It should be noted however that
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
doesn't use the telnet protocol and will be unable to negotiate
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
with a telnet server. You should set up a port for receiving this
|
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
|
|
|
connection on the receiving machine (ui-gate). This is
|
1997-06-13 00:04:58 +00:00
|
|
|
done by first updating
|
|
|
|
.Pa /etc/services
|
|
|
|
to name the service:

|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|

|
|
|
.Xr inetd 8
|
1997-06-13 00:04:58 +00:00
|
|
|
after you've updated

The entry in

You may also want to enable PAP or CHAP for security. To enable PAP, add

|

Again, if you're enabling PAP, you'll also need:
|
|
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
|
|
set authname MyAuthName
|
|
|
|
set authkey MyAuthKey
|

|
|
|
.Pp
|
1997-06-13 00:04:58 +00:00
|
|
|
We're assigning the address of 10.0.4.1 to ui-gate, and the address
|
|
|
|
10.0.4.2 to awfulhak.
|
|
|
|
To open the connection, just type
|
1998-08-07 18:42:51 +00:00
|
|
|
.Pp
|
1997-06-13 00:04:58 +00:00
|
|
|
.Dl awfulhak # ppp -background ui-gate
|
1998-08-07 18:42:51 +00:00
|
|
|
.Pp
|
1997-06-13 00:04:58 +00:00
|
|
|
The result will be an additional "route" on awfulhak to the
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
10.0.2.0/24 network via the TCP connection, and an additional
|
1997-06-13 00:04:58 +00:00
|
|
|
"route" on ui-gate to the 10.0.1.0/24 network.
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
The networks are effectively bridged - the underlying TCP
|
1997-06-13 00:04:58 +00:00
|
|
|
connection may be across a public network (such as the
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
Internet), and the
|
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
|
|
|
traffic is conceptually encapsulated
|
|
|
|
(although not packet by packet) inside the TCP stream between
|
1997-06-13 00:04:58 +00:00
|
|
|
the two gateways.
|
|
|
|
The major disadvantage of this mechanism is that there are two
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
"guaranteed delivery" mechanisms in place - the underlying TCP
|
|
|
|
stream and whatever protocol is used over the
|
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
|
|
|
link - probably TCP again. If packets are lost, both levels will
|
|
|
|
get in each others way trying to negotiate sending of the missing
|
|
|
|
packet.
|
1997-06-09 23:38:38 +00:00
|
|
|
.Sh PACKET ALIASING
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
.Fl alias
|
|
|
|
command line option enables packet aliasing. This allows the
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
host to act as a masquerading gateway for other computers over
|
1997-06-09 23:38:38 +00:00
|
|
|
a local area network. Outgoing IP packets are aliased so that
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
they appear to come from the
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
host, and incoming packets are de-aliased so that they are routed
|
|
|
|
to the correct machine on the local area network.
|
1997-06-09 23:38:38 +00:00
|
|
|
Packet aliasing allows computers on private, unregistered
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
subnets to have Internet access, although they are invisible
|
1997-06-09 23:38:38 +00:00
|
|
|
from the outside world.
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00
|
|
|
In general, correct
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
operation should first be verified with packet aliasing disabled.
|
|
|
|
Then, the
|
1997-06-09 23:38:38 +00:00
|
|
|
.Fl alias
|
|
|
|
option should be switched on, and network applications (web browser,

should be checked on the

host. Finally, the same or similar applications should be checked on other
|
1997-06-09 23:38:38 +00:00

computers in the LAN.

If network applications work correctly on the
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
host, but not on other machines in the LAN, then the masquerading
|
|
|
|
software is working properly, but the host is either not forwarding
|
|
|
|
or possibly receiving IP packets. Check that IP forwarding is enabled in
|
1997-06-09 23:38:38 +00:00
|
|
|
.Pa /etc/rc.conf
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00

and that other machines have designated the
|
|
|

.Nm

host as the gateway for the LAN.

.Sh PACKET FILTERING
|
1997-06-16 13:52:10 +00:00
|
|

This implementation supports packet filtering. There are four kinds of
|
1998-03-16 22:52:54 +00:00
|
|
|
filters; the
|
|
|
|
.Em in
|
|
|
|
filter, the
|
|
|
|
.Em out
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
.Em dial
|
|
|
|
filter and the
|
|
|
|
.Em alive
|
|
|
|
filter. Here are the basics:

|
1998-04-16 18:30:54 +00:00

supports both Predictor type 1 and deflate compression.

|
By default,
|
1998-01-05 01:35:20 +00:00
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
will attempt to use (or be willing to accept) both compression protocols
|
|
|
|
when the peer agrees
|
|

.Pq or requests them .
|

|
The deflate protocol is preferred by

Refer to the

By default, when negotiating DEFLATE,
|

|
will use a window size of 15. Refer to the

command if you wish to change this behaviour.
|

.Pp
|

A special algorithm called DEFLATE24 is also available, and is disabled
|
|
|
|
and denied by default. This is exactly the same as DEFLATE except that
|
|
|
|
it uses CCP ID 24 to negotiate. This allows
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
to successfully negotiate DEFLATE with

|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
uses IPCP to negotiate IP addresses. Each side of the connection
|
1995-05-21 17:32:35 +00:00
|
|
|
specifies the IP address that it's willing to use, and if the requested
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
IP address is acceptable then
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
1996-12-22 17:29:33 +00:00
|
|
|
returns ACK to the requester. Otherwise,
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
returns NAK to suggest that the peer use a different IP address. When
|
|
|
|
both sides of the connection agree to accept the received request (and
|
|
|
|
send ACK), IPCP is set to the open state and a network level connection
|
|
|
|
is established.
|
1997-11-06 00:25:33 +00:00

.Sh CONNECTING WITH YOUR INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER
|
1997-04-12 22:58:41 +00:00
|

The following steps should be taken when connecting to your ISP:
|
1995-09-24 18:15:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.Bl -enum
|
|

|
|
|
.Dq set phone
|
1997-04-12 22:58:41 +00:00
|
|
|
command. This command allows you to set multiple phone numbers for
|
1997-08-17 20:38:45 +00:00
|
|
|
dialing and redialing separated by either a pipe (|) or a colon (:)
|
1997-04-12 22:58:41 +00:00

Numbers after the first in a pipe-separated list are only used if the
|
1997-08-23 23:14:24 +00:00
|
|
|
previous number was used in a failed dial or login script. Numbers
|
|
|
|
separated by a colon are used sequentially, irrespective of what happened
|
|
|
|
as a result of using the previous number. For example:
|
1997-08-17 20:38:45 +00:00
|
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
|
|
set phone "1234567|2345678:3456789|4567890"

|
|
Here, the 1234567 number is attempted. If the dial or login script fails,
|
|
|
|
the 2345678 number is used next time, but *only* if the dial or login script
|
|
|
|
fails. On the dial after this, the 3456789 number is used. The 4567890
|
|
|
|
number is only used if the dial or login script using the 3456789 fails. If
|
|
|
|
the login script of the 2345678 number fails, the next number is still the
|
|
|
|
3456789 number. As many pipes and colons can be used as are necessary
|
|
|
|
(although a given site would usually prefer to use either the pipe or the
|
|
|
|
colon, but not both). The next number redial timeout is used between all
|
|
|
|
numbers. When the end of the list is reached, the normal redial period is
|
|
|
|
used before starting at the beginning again.
|
1997-08-17 20:38:45 +00:00
|
|
|
The selected phone number is substituted for the \\\\T string in the
|
1997-04-12 22:58:41 +00:00
|
|
|
.Dq set dial
|

Set up your redial requirements using
|
|
|

.Dq set redial .
|
|

For example, if you have a bad telephone line or your provider is

usually engaged (not so common these days), you may want to specify
|
|
|
|
the following:
|
|

|
|
|
If you wish to use more than one physical link to connect to a
|
|
|
|
.Em PPP
|
|
|
|
peer, that peer must also understand the
|
1998-05-29 18:32:41 +00:00
|
|
|
.Em MULTI-LINK PPP
|
1998-05-18 23:24:24 +00:00
|
|
|
protocol. Refer to RFC 1990 for specification details.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
The peer is identified using a combination of his
|
|
|
|
.Dq endpoint discriminator
|
|
|
|
and his
|
|
|
|
.Dq authentication id .
|
|
|
|
Either or both of these may be specified. It is recommended that
|
|
|
|
at least one is specified, otherwise there is no way of ensuring that
|
|
|
|
all links are actually connected to the same peer program, and some
|
|
|
|
confusing lock-ups may result. Locally, these identification variables
|
|
|
|
are specified using the
|
|
|
|
.Dq set enddisc
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
|
.Dq set authname
|
|
|
|
commands. The
|
|
|
|
.Sq authname
|
|
|
|
.Pq and Sq authkey
|
|
|
|
must be agreed in advance with the peer.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
1998-05-29 18:32:41 +00:00

Multi-link capabilities are enabled using the

|
|
|
.Dq set mrru
|
1998-05-29 18:32:41 +00:00
|
|
|
command (set maximum reconstructed receive unit). Once multi-link
|
1998-05-18 23:24:24 +00:00
|
|
|
is enabled,
|
|
|
|
.Nm

1998-05-29 18:32:41 +00:00

|
|
|
.Sq link
|
|
|
|
is available
|
|
|
|
.Pq called Sq deflink .
|
|
|
|
To create more links, the
|
|
|
|
.Dq clone
|
|
|
|
command is used. This command will clone existing links, where all
|
|
|
|
characteristics are the same except:
|
|
|
|
.Bl -enum
|
|
|
|
.It
|
|

The new link has its own name as specified on the
|
|
|
|
.Dq clone
|
|
|
|
command line.
|
|
|
|
.It
|
|
|
|
The new link is an
|
|
|
|
.Sq interactive
|
|
|
|
link. It's mode may subsequently be changed using the
|
|
|
|
.Dq set mode
|
|
|
|
command.
|
|
|
|
.It
|
|
|
|
The new link is in a
|
|
|
|
.Sq closed
|
|
|

A summary of all available links can be seen using the
|
|
|
|
.Dq show links
|
|
|
|
command.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
Once a new link has been created, command usage varies. All link
|
|
|
|
specific commands must be prefixed with the
|
|
|
|
.Dq link Ar name
|
|
|
|
command, specifying on which link the command is to be applied. When
|
|
|
|
only a single link is available,
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
is smart enough not to require the
|
|
|
|
.Dq link Ar name
|
|
|
|
prefix.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
Some commands can still be used without specifying a link - resulting
|
|
|
|
in an operation at the
|
|
|
|
.Sq bundle
|
|
|
|
level. For example, once two or more links are available, the command
|
|
|
|
.Dq show ccp
|
1998-05-29 18:32:41 +00:00
|
|
|
will show CCP configuration and statistics at the multi-link level, and
|
1998-05-18 23:24:24 +00:00
|
|
|
.Dq link deflink show ccp
|
|
|
|
will show the same information at the
|
|
|
|
.Dq deflink
|
|
|
|
link level.
|
|
|
|

how to negotiate the initial connection with the peer. Each

.It acfcomp
|
|
|
|
Default: Enabled and Accepted. ACFComp stands for Address and Control
|
|
|
|
Field Compression. Non LCP packets usually have very similar address
|
|
|
|
and control fields - making them easily compressible.
|
1997-06-09 23:38:38 +00:00

.It chap
|
|
|
|
Default: Disabled and Accepted. CHAP stands for Challenge Handshake
|
|
|
|
Authentication Protocol. Only one of CHAP and PAP (below) may be
|
|
|
|
negotiated. With CHAP, the authenticator sends a "challenge" message
|
|
|
|
to its peer. The peer uses a one-way hash function to encrypt the
|
|
|
|
challenge and sends the result back. The authenticator does the same,
|
|
|
|
and compares the results. The advantage of this mechanism is that no
|
|
|
|
passwords are sent across the connection.
|
|
|
|
A challenge is made when the connection is first made. Subsequent
|
1997-09-09 21:01:53 +00:00
|
|
|
challenges may occur. If you want to have your peer authenticate
|
|
|

Some

|
implementations use "MS-CHAP" rather than MD5 when encrypting the
|
1998-05-19 19:58:21 +00:00

Default: Disabled and Accepted. This option decides if Link Quality
|
1998-04-03 19:24:07 +00:00

|
|
to determine that the link is down without relying on the modems

.Dq set lqrperiod

below) as part of the LCP request. If the peer agrees, both sides will
|
|
|
|
exchange LQR packets at the agreed frequency, allowing detailed link
|
|
|
|
quality monitoring by enabling LQM logging. If the peer doesn't agree,
|
|
|
|
ppp will send ECHO LQR requests instead. These packets pass no

information of interest, but they

Default: Disabled and Accepted. PAP stands for Password Authentication

Protocol. Only one of PAP and CHAP (above) may be negotiated. With

|
|
PAP, the ID and Password are sent repeatedly to the peer until
|
|
|
|
authentication is acknowledged or the connection is terminated. This
|
|
|
|
is a rather poor security mechanism. It is only performed when the

to everything except a given label by specifying default users in the

.It alias Ar command Op Ar args
|
1997-11-11 22:58:14 +00:00
|

This command allows the control of the aliasing (or masquerading)
|
|
|
|
facilities that are built into
|
|
|
|
.Nm ppp .
|
|
|
|
Until this code is required, it is not loaded by
|
|
|
|
.Nm ppp ,
|
|
|
|
and it is quite possible that the alias library is not installed
|
|
|
|
on your system (some administrators consider it a security risk).
|
|
|
|
If aliasing is enabled on your system, the following commands are
|
|
|
|
possible:
|
|
|
|
.Bl -tag -width 20
|
|
|
|
.It alias enable [yes|no]
|
|
|
|
This command either switches aliasing on or turns it off.
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
.Fl alias
|
|
|
|
command line flag is synonymous with
|
|
|
|
.Dq alias enable yes .
|
1998-04-03 19:26:29 +00:00
|
|
|
.It alias port Op Ar proto targetIP:targetPORT [aliasIP:]aliasPORT
|
1997-11-11 22:58:14 +00:00
|

This command allows us to redirect connections arriving at
|
1998-04-03 19:26:29 +00:00
|
|
|
.Ar aliasPORT
|
|
|

|
|
|
and only connections of the given protocol
|
1997-11-11 22:58:14 +00:00
|

are matched. This option is useful if you wish to run things like
|

Internet phone on the machines behind your gateway.

|
|
|
.It alias addr Op Ar addr_local addr_alias
|
1997-11-11 22:58:14 +00:00

This command allows data for
|
1998-04-03 19:26:29 +00:00
|
|
|
.Ar addr_alias
|
1997-11-11 22:58:14 +00:00

1998-04-03 19:26:29 +00:00
|
|
|
.Ar addr_local .
|
1997-11-11 22:58:14 +00:00
|
|
|
It is useful if you own a small number of real IP numbers that
|
|
|
|
you wish to map to specific machines behind your gateway.
|
|
|
|
.It alias deny_incoming [yes|no]
|
|
|
|
If set to yes, this command will refuse all incoming connections
|
|
|
|
by dropping the packets in much the same way as a firewall would.
|
1998-04-03 19:26:29 +00:00
|
|
|
.It alias help|?
|

This command gives a summary of available alias commands.
|
1997-11-11 22:58:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.It alias log [yes|no]
|
|
|
|
This option causes various aliasing statistics and information to
|
|
|
|
be logged to the file
|
|
|
|
.Pa /var/log/alias.log .
|
|
|
|
.It alias same_ports [yes|no]
|
|
|
|
When enabled, this command will tell the alias library attempt to
|
|
|
|
avoid changing the port number on outgoing packets. This is useful
|
|
|
|
if you want to support protocols such as RPC and LPD which require
|
|
|
|
connections to come from a well known port.
|
|
|
|
.It alias use_sockets [yes|no]
|
|
|
|
When enabled, this option tells the alias library to create a
|
|
|
|
socket so that it can guarantee a correct incoming ftp data or
|
|
|
|
IRC connection.
|
|
|
|
.It alias unregistered_only [yes|no]
|
|
|
|
Only alter outgoing packets with an unregistered source ad-
|
|
|
|
dress. According to RFC 1918, unregistered source addresses
|
|
|
|
are 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12 and 192.168.0.0/16.

ACCMap stands for Asynchronous Control Character Map. This is always

negotiated with the peer, and defaults to a value of 00000000 in hex.

It is possible to specify some special

in your chat script as follows:
|

|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|

.It \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\c
|
|
|
|
When used as the last character in a

.Sq send
|
|
|
|
string, this indicates that a newline should not be appended.
|
|
|
|
.It \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\d
|
|
|
|
When the chat script encounters this sequence, it delays two seconds.
|
|
|
|
.It \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\p
|
|
|
|
When the chat script encounters this sequence, it delays for one quarter of
|
|
|
|
a second.
|
|
|
|
.It \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\n
|
|
|
|
This is replaced with a newline character.
|
|
|
|
.It \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\r
|
|
|
|
This is replaced with a carriage return character.
|
|
|
|
.It \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\s
|
|
|
|
This is replaced with a space character.
|
|
|

This is replaced with a tab character.
|
|

Note that two parsers will examine these escape sequences, so in order to
|
|
|
|
have the
|
|
|
|
.Sq chat parser
|
|
|
|
see the escape character, it is necessary to escape it from the
|
|
|
|
.Sq command parser .
|
|
|
|
This means that in practice you should use two escapes, for example:
|
|
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
|
|
set dial "... ATDT\\\\T CONNECT"
|
|
|
|
.Ed

.Pp
|
1997-12-27 07:22:12 +00:00
|
|
|
It is also possible to execute external commands from the chat script.
|
|
|
|
To do this, the first character of the expect or send string is an
|
1998-05-29 18:32:41 +00:00
|
|
|
exclamation mark
|
1997-12-27 07:22:12 +00:00
|
|
|
.Pq Dq \&! .
|
|
|
|
When the command is executed, standard input and standard output are
|
|
|
|
directed to the modem device (see the
|
|
|
|
.Dq set device
|
|
|
|
command), and standard error is read by
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
and substituted as the expect or send string. If
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
1998-04-30 23:53:56 +00:00
|
|
|
is running in interactive mode, file descriptor 3 is attached to
|
1997-12-27 07:22:12 +00:00
|
|
|
.Pa /dev/tty .
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
For example (wrapped for readability);
|
|
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
|
|
set login "TIMEOUT 5 \\"\\" \\"\\" login:--login: ppp \e
|
|
|

.Pp
|

|
Note (again) the use of the escape character, allowing many levels of
|
|
|
|
nesting. Here, there are four parsers at work. The first parses the
|
|
|
|
original line, reading it as three arguments. The second parses the
|
|
|
|
third argument, reading it as 11 arguments. At this point, it is
|
|
|
|
important that the
|
|
|
|
.Dq \&-
|
|
|
|
signs are escaped, otherwise this parser will see them as constituting
|
|
|
|
an expect-send-expect sequence. When the
|
|
|
|
.Dq \&!
|
|
|
|
character is seen, the execution parser reads the first command as three
|
|
|
|
arguments, and then
|
|
|
|
.Xr sh 1
|
|
|
|
itself expands the argument after the
|
|
|
|
.Fl c .
|
|
|
|
As we wish to send the output back to the modem, in the first example
|
|
|
|
we redirect our output to file descriptor 2 (stderr) so that
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
itself sends and logs it, and in the second example, we just output to stdout,
|
|
|
|
which is attached directly to the modem.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
This, of course means that it is possible to execute an entirely external
|
|
|
|
.Dq chat
|
|
|
|
command rather than using the internal one. See
|
|
|
|
.Xr chat 8
|
|
|
|
for a good alternative.

.It set enddisc Op label|IP|MAC|magic|psn value
|
1998-04-23 03:23:03 +00:00

|
This command sets our local endpoint discriminator. If set prior to
|
|
|
|
LCP negotiation,
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
will send the information to the peer using the LCP endpoint discriminator
|
|
|
|
option. The following discriminators may be set:
|
|
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
1998-04-23 23:50:40 +00:00
|
|
|
.It label
|
|
|
|
The current label is used.
|
1998-04-23 03:23:03 +00:00
|
|
|
.It IP
|
|
|
|
Our local IP number is used. As LCP is negotiated prior to IPCP, it is
|
|
|
|
possible that the IPCP layer will subsequently change this value. If
|
1998-05-29 18:32:41 +00:00
|
|
|
it does, the endpoint discriminator stays at the old value unless manually
|
1998-04-23 03:23:03 +00:00
|
|
|
reset.
|
1998-04-23 23:50:40 +00:00
|
|
|
.It MAC
|
|
|
|
This is similar to the
|
|
|
|
.Ar IP
|
|
|
|
option above, except that the MAC address associated with the local IP
|
1998-05-29 18:32:41 +00:00
|
|
|
number is used. If the local IP number is not resident on any Ethernet
|
1998-04-23 23:50:40 +00:00
|
|
|
interface, the command will fail.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
As the local IP number defaults to whatever the machine host name is,
|
|
|
|
.Dq set enddisc mac
|
|
|
|
is usually done prior to any
|
|
|
|
.Dq set ifaddr

filter specifies packets that keep the connection alive - reseting the
|
|
|
|
idle timer. The
|

filter specifies packets that cause

|
|

.Nm

filter specifies packets that are allowed to travel
|
|
|
|
into the machine and the
|
|
|
|
.Em out
|
|
|
|
filter specifies packets that are allowed out of the machine.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
Filtering is done prior to any IP alterations that might be done by the
|
|
|
|
alias engine. By default all filter sets allow all packets to pass.
|
|
|
|
Rules are processed in order according to
|
|
|
|
.Ar rule-no .
|
|
|
|
Up to 20 rules may be given for each set. If a packet doesn't match
|
|
|
|
any of the rules in a given set, it is discarded. In the case of
|
|
|
|
.Em in
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
|
.Em out
|
|
|
|
filters, this means that the packet is dropped. In the case of
|
|
|
|
.Em alive
|
|
|
|
filters it means that the packet will not reset the idle timer and in
|
|
|
|
the case of
|
|
|
|
.Em dial
|
|
|
|
filters it means that the packet will not trigger a dial. A packet failing
|
|
|
|
to trigger a dial will be dropped rather than queued. Refer to the
|
|
|
|
section on PACKET FILTERING above for further details.

When using
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
with a server socket, the
|
|
|
|
.Xr pppctl 8
|
|
|
|
command is the preferred mechanism of communications. Currently,
|
|
|
|
.Xr telnet 1
|
|
|
|
can also be used, but link encryption may be implemented in the future, so
|
1997-11-09 22:07:29 +00:00
|
|
|
.Xr telnet 1
|
1997-10-05 14:27:08 +00:00
|
|
|
should not be relied upon.

|
|
|
.It set speed Ar value
|
1997-06-09 23:38:38 +00:00
|
|
|
This sets the speed of the serial device.
|
1998-04-03 19:26:29 +00:00
|
|
|
.It set stopped Ar [LCPseconds [CCPseconds]]
|
|
|
|
If this option is set,
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
will time out after the given FSM (Finite State Machine) has been in
|
|
|
|
the stopped state for the given number of
|
|
|
|
.Dq seconds .
|
|
|
|
This option may be useful if the peer sends a terminate request,
|
|
|
|
but never actually closes the connection despite our sending a terminate
|
|
|
|
acknowledgement. This is also useful if you wish to
|
|
|
|
.Dq set openmode passive
|
|
|
|
and time out if the peer doesn't send a Configure Request within the
|
|
|
|
given time. Use
|
|
|
|
.Dq set log +lcp +ccp
|
|
|
|
to make
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
log the appropriate state transitions.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
The default value is zero, where
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
doesn't time out in the stopped state.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
This value should not be set to less than the openmode delay (see
|
|
|
|
.Dq set openmode
|
|
|
|
above).
|
|
|
|
.It set timeout Ar idleseconds
|
1998-04-03 19:24:07 +00:00
|
|
|
This command allows the setting of the idle timer. Refer to the
|
|
|
|
section titled
|

|
|
|

1998-04-03 19:26:29 +00:00

.It set vj slotcomp on|off
|
|
|
|
This command tells
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
whether it should attempt to negotiate VJ slot compression. By default,
|
|
|
|
slot compression is turned
|
|
|
|
.Ar on .
|
|
|
|
.It set vj slots Ar nslots
|
|
|

This command sets the initial number of slots that
|
1998-01-18 20:49:22 +00:00
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
will try to negotiate with the peer when VJ compression is enabled (see the
|
|
|
|
.Sq enable
|
|
|
|
command above). It defaults to a value of 16.
|
|
|
|
.Ar Nslots
|
|
|
|
must be between
