CAFFEINE.SUNDIAL.NET
I have a dedicated ISDN connection through a Motorola Bitsurfr
Pro TA. PPP is very straight forward. I use the NAT capabilities of
PPP with the -alias switch.
Attached are snippets from my rc.conf and ppp.conf to get you started.
/etc/rc.conf snippets:
### Basic network options: ###
hostname="caffeine.sundial.net"
nisdomainname="NO"
firewall_enable="NO"
firewall_type="UNKNOWN"
firewall_quiet="NO"
natd_enable="NO"
natd_interface="fxp0"
natd_flags=""
tcp_extensions="NO"
network_interfaces="ed0 lo0"
ifconfig_ed0="inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 link1"
ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1"
### Network routing options: ###
defaultrouter="204.181.150.5"
static_routes=""
gateway_enable="YES"
router_enable="YES"
router="routed"
router_flags="-q -h"
mrouted_enable="NO"
mrouted_flags=""
ipxgateway_enable="NO"
ipxrouted_enable="NO"
ipxrouted_flags=""
arpproxy_all=""
forward_sourceroute="NO"
accept_sourceroute="NO"
/etc/ppp/ppp.conf snippets:
default:
set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command
set device /dev/cuaa0
set speed 115200
dialback:
set dial "ABORT BUSY TIMEOUT 60 \"\" ATZ OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK
\\dAT@B0=1%A2=2&C0S0=1DT\\T TIMEOUT 90"
set phone XXXXXXX
set login "ABORT BUSY TIMEOUT 60 ogin:--ogin: XXXXXXXX word: XXXXXXXX
CONNECT"
set authname XXXXXXXX
set authkey XXXXXXXX
set timeout 120
set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0
add default HISADDR
enable dns
ondemand:
set dial "ABORT BUSY TIMEOUT 60 \"\" ATZ OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK
\\dAT%A2=95S0=0D\\T TIMEOUT 90"
set phone XXXXXXX
set login
set authname XXXXXXXX
set authkey XXXXXXXX
set timeout 120
set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0
add default HISADDR
enable dns
dualchannel:
set dial "ABORT BUSY ERROR TIMEOUT 60 \"\" AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0 OK
\\dAT%A2=95@b0=2S0=0DT\\T TIMEOUT 90"
set phone XXXXXXX&XXXXXXX
set login
set authname XXXXXXXX
set authkey XXXXXXXX
set timeout 120
set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0
add default HISADDR
enable dns
Notes:
ondemand: is used to get a USR Total Control Chassis to perform dial-back.
As suggested by Dan O'Connor, I start PPP through:
/etc/start_if.tun0:
#!/bin/sh
ppp -ddial -alias dialback
For most cases though, you'd probably want to use:
ppp -auto -alias ondemand
Make sure you also setup /etc/networks. Here's mine:
/etc/networks:
# $Id: networks,v 1.2 1998/09/02 01:34:56 brian Exp $
# @(#)networks 5.1 (Berkeley) 6/30/90
#
# Your Local Networks Database
#
localhost 127
localmask 255.255.255
caffeine 10.0.0
sundial 204.181.150
Don't forget about /etc/hosts, either.
/etc/hosts:
# $Id: hosts,v 1.9 1998/04/16 14:37:19 joerg Exp $
#
# Host Database
# This file should contain the addresses and aliases
# for local hosts that share this file.
# In the presence of the domain name service or NIS, this file may
# not be consulted at all; see /etc/host.conf for the resolution order.
#
#
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.caffeine.sundial.net caffeine.sundial.net
#
# Imaginary network.
10.0.0.1 caffeine.sundial.net caffeine
10.0.0.2 prozac.caffeine.sundial.net prozac
10.0.0.3 mtdew.caffeine.sundial.net mtdew
10.0.0.4 lithium.caffeine.sundial.net lithium
10.0.0.5 ridillin.caffeine.sundial.net ridillin
10.0.0.6 zantac.caffeine.sundial.net zantac
That should get you started, at least. ;-)
Good luck!
