ppp magic-number ignore-mismatch
ppp max-negotiations
580
Use the no version to restore negotiation of the local magic number.
See ppp magic-number disable.
Use to cause the router to ignore a mismatch of the LCP peer magic number and retain
the PPP connection when the peer has not negotiated an LCP magic number.
For more information about using this command, see "Validation of LCP Peer Magic
Number" on page 261 in "Configuring Point-to-Point Protocol" on page 259.
To verify configuration of LCP peer magic number validation on the router, use the
show profile command. For information, see "show profile" on page 604.
Example
host1(config-if)#ppp magic-number ignore-mismatch
Use the no version to restore the default behavior, in which the router terminates the
PPP connection if it detects an LCP peer magic number mismatch.
See ppp magic-number ignore-mismatch.
Use to configure the maximum number of LCP, IPCP, or IPv6CP renegotiation attempts,
in the range 1–65535, that the router accepts before terminating a PPP session.
Configuring the maximum number of renegotiation attempts helps avoid massive
renegotiation loops that can occur between the router and a noncompliant PPP client.
Such renegotiation loops can cause excessive CPU utilization and can prevent the PPP
client from coming up properly.
When a PPP client exceeds the configured maximum number of renegotation attempts,
the router sends a termination request to end the PPP session. When the PPP session
is terminated and LCP goes into a stopped (closed) state, dynamic PPP or MLPPP
interface columns are torn down and wait to be recreated when traffic is detected on
the interface.
If you do not specify the optional lcp, ipcp, or ipv6cp keyword, the ppp
max-negotiations command sets the maximum number of renegotiation attempts
for each of LCP, IPCP, and IPv6CP to the value you specify, or to the default value (30)
if you omit the optional value for maximum renegotiation attempts.
When both IPv4 interface columns and IPv6 interface columns are configured over a
PPP link-layer interface, the router terminates the PPP session only when the PPP
client exceeds the configured maximum number of renegotiation attempts for both
the IPv4 interface and the IPv6 interface.
Example 1—Sets the maximum number of LCP renegotiation attempts to 5
host1(config-profile)#ppp max-negotiations lcp 5
Example 2—Sets the maximum number of IPCP renegotiation attempts to 30 (the
default)
host1(config-profile)#ppp max-negotiations ipcp
