• Committed information rate (CIR) of 20 million bits per second
• Leave high-, low-, and medium-priority queue depths set to factory defaults
• Random Early Discard (RED) disabled
• RMON enabled
The command line necessary to set up a service profile with the above attributes would be

Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) Overview
Because of its ability to quickly and easily accommodate IP and IPX protocol traffic, Point-
to-Point Protocol (PPP) routing has become a very important aspect of WAN
configuration. Using PPP, you can set up router-to-router, host-to-router, and host-to-host
connections.
Establishing a connection in a PPP environment requires that the following events take
place:
• The router initializing the PPP connection transmits Link Control Protocol (LCP)
configuration and test frames to the remote peer to set up the data link.
• Once the connection has been established, the router which initiated the PPP
connection transmits a series of Network Control Protocol (NCP) frames necessary to
configure one or more network-layer protocols.
• Finally, when the network-layer protocols have been configured, both the host and
remote peer can send packets to one another using any and all of the configured
network-layer protocols.
The link will remain active until explicit LCP or NCP frames instruct the host and/or the
peer router to close the link, or until some external event (i.e., user interruption or system
time-out) takes place.
You can set up PPP ports on your XP with the commands described in Chapter 32: “port
Commands” in the Enterasys Xpedition Command Line Interface Reference Manual.
