Notes

  • lcp-echo-failure and lcp-echo-interval are the only settings that should normally be adjusted.
  • lcp-max-configure, lcp-max-failure and lcp-max-terminate may need to be adjusted in areas that suffer high disconnection rates. Please Contact us to discuss alternatives before adjusting these settings
  • debug nDescription: Enables connection debugging facilities. Only to be used in conjunction with an APT Support Technician. Default: 0 (Disabled)
  • lcp-echo-failure nWill presume the peer to be dead if n echo-requests are sent without receiving a valid echo-reply. If this count is exceeded the connection will be re-established. Default: 2
  • lcp-echo-interval n
    Send an LCP echo-request to the peer every n seconds. Normally the peer should respond to the echo-request by sending an echo-reply. Default: 7200 (2 hours)
  • lcp-max-configure n
    Set the maximum number of LCP configure-request transmissions to n. Default: 5
  • lcp-max-failure n
    Set the maximum number of LCP configure-NAKs returned before starting to send configure-Rejects instead to n. Default: 5
  • lcp-max-terminate n
    Set the maximum number of LCP terminate-request transmissions to n. Default: 2
