Use the Network Configuration Manager or
the PPP Manager to
add PPP endpoints after you have
configured the PPP stack as described in
``Adding the PPP protocol stack''.
If you are using the PPP Manager,
skip to step 4.
To add a PPP link endpoint:
Log in as root and run
the Network Configuration Manager.
Select SCO TCP/IP PPP driver from the list.
Select Modify hardware configuration from the Hardware
menu.
This invokes the PPP Manager.
Select Add and
choose the desired type of endpoint:
This displays a form for entering data that defines the PPP
endpoint.
NOTE:
If you have not already configured a modem on your system,
and the endpoint type selected is not a dedicated one, the
Manager displays a message dialog to allow you to run the
Modem Manager.
You can defer configuring a modem if desired.
Enter the information that defines the endpoint on the form.
To perform advanced configuration, select one
of the buttons: Comms, Timers,
Link, or IP.
See
``Advanced PPP configuration''
for more information about these options.
Click on OK to confirm the endpoint configuration.
Select Exit from the Host menu to exit the
PPP Manager.
The endpoint you have configured is now available.
