POINT-TO-POINT PROTOCOL

PPP Components Link Control Protocol (LCP)


Provides for the establishment, configuration, and maintenance of a PPP link. Protocol-independent options are negotiated by LCP.

PPP Summary Standard RFC 1661 Interfaces Asynchronous serial, synchronous serial, ISDN, HSSI PPP Features

Network Control Protocol (NCP)


A separate NCP is used to negotiate the configuration of each network layer protocol (such as IP) carried by PPP.

Authentication Protocols Plaintext Authentication Protocol (PAP)


Original, obsolete authentication protocol which relies on the exchange of a plaintext key to authenticate peers (RFC 1334).

Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP)


Authenticates peers using the MD5 checksum of a pre-shared secret key (RFC 1994).

General PPP Configuration


! Configure a peer account if authentication will be used username peer-hostname password password ! Configure a local IP address pool if needed ip pool name first-IP last-IP interface Serial0/0 ! Enable PPP encapsulation encapsulation ppp ! Enable CHAP and/or PAP for authentication ppp authentication { chap | pap } [ chap | pap ] ! Enable compression compress { predictor | stac } ! Enable peer IP address assignment (server side) peer default ip address { pool name | IP-address } ! Enable IP address negotiation (client side) ip address negotiated
