debug ppp negotiation

Hi every body!

I was reading about PPP which is suite of protocols. One of the protocol is LCP

According to my book, LCp is charged with establishing, maintaining and terminating the link.

Curious , i set up small lab as r1----r2

and use " debug ppp negotiation " on r2 to see what parameters are negotiated as the link is brought up.

Below is the output:

============================

All i can see magic numbers, which ensures the link is not looped. what others things are negotiated while the link is being established besides the authentication method ?

thanks a lot!

My question is during link link establishing phase, LCP negotiates some parameters , besides some check such as loop detection, what are those parameters? One of the parameter is authentication method but i am just wondering about what are other parameters ?

Hope this link helps:

. what others things are negotiated while the link is being established besides the authentication method ?

username and password?

Thanks a lot Edison!

I believe user name and password are exchanged in authentication phase which follows the link establishment phase. I might be wrong but that is what the book shows.

Sarah,

You are right, I guess I didn't understand your question.

You asked 'what other things are negotiated' and other than the authentication method, that will be the credentials.

What exactly are you looking for?

Thanks a lot Edison for being so patient with me.

I was reading about ppp prtocol suite. One of the protocol is LCP. My book says LCP job is to establish and terminate link. Book also mentions that before Lcp establishes a link, it negotiates some parameters , perform some checks such as loop detection etc.

Book shows a illustration which makes me feel during link establishing phase, lcp also negotiates which authentication method the ppp peer will use.After the link is established, authentication phase begins.

My question is during link link establishing phase, LCP negotiates some parameters , besides some check such as loop detection, what are those parameters? One of the parameter is authentication method but i am just wondering about what are other parameters ?
