The PPP SET-UP MENU provides for general PPP circuit parameter set-up. The parameters configurable from this menu
are used during LCP (Link Control Protocol) negotiations with a remote site PPP router. This P1700 will request the
configuration parameters defined here when initiating a PPP connection to a remote site PPP router.
When negotiating the LCP parameters for incoming PPP connections initiated by the remote site PPP router, this P1700 will
use these values as defaults but will accept a request for different values from the remote site PPP router.
If any of these LCP configuration parameters are required to be of a known value for a particular PPP connection, the
parameters should be set to the same values on the routers on each end of the PPP link.
1 - Advanced PPP Set-Up
The Advanced PPP Set-up option takes you to the Advanced PPP Set-Up Menu. Here you set the advanced LCP
parameters such as field compression, Quality protocol, and the type of multilink sequencing.
2 - Restart Timer
The Restart Timer option specifies the time between retransmissions of Configure Request or Terminate Request
packets. When attempting to establish a PPP link connection, if the Restart Timer expires before a response is received
for a Configure Request, another Configure Request will be sent.
