Hi, Thanks for the info First of all let me try to clear your confusion .. 1) at the client side as i already told you its linux-box and i am running pppd (2.4) ie. pppd plugin pppoatm.so 9.45 user xxxxxx password xxxxxx now this box send LCP packets 10 times and the pppd terminates. as there is no responder.. 2) Now I need to setup responder (PPPoA-server i belive) my self similar to PPPoE-server in the case of pppoe test linuxPC. so if you know about server pls pass me the info Also we have alctel-iSAM which has only pppoa-relay and id doesnot have server ......! -Arun On Wed, Jun 2, 2010 at 7:56 PM, James Carlson <carlsonj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > arun b wrote: >> On Wed, Jun 2, 2010 at 4:27 PM, James Carlson <carlsonj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >>> But I think it's probably time to take a step back and ask the obvious >>> question: can you tell us what you've got (in terms of hardware, >>> software, and operational environment) and what you're trying to do (in >>> as much high-level detail as possible)? >> >> NO I am not building it for Dslam-box. well I want to run PPPoA server >> at remote side device where ATM path terminates. >> I am executing this is "pppd plugin pppoatm.so 0.80 >> 192.168.1.1:192.168.1.2 passive" on my client(linux-box). > > "passive" is a slightly surprising option to see on the "client" side of > the connection.
