Option Description

The
port, to the ACP host. The host then determines the local and
remote addresses for the link by searching for entries in the
acp_dialup file.

The

port is effectively in PPP mode (e.g., the mode was set to

When address_origin is set to acp, the local and remote field settings

and remote_address port parameters (for more details, see
Determining Dial-up Addresses using the acp_dialup File on page A-
