Major Tasks for Setting Up the Dial-up PPP Link (Task Map)

You set up the dial-up PPP link by configuring modems, modifying network database files, and modifying the PPP configuration files that are described in Table 22-1.

The next table lists the major tasks to configure both sides of a dial-up PPP link. Typically, you configure only one end of the link, either the dial-out machine or dial-in server.

Table 17-1 Task Map for Setting Up the Dial-up PPP Link

Task	Description	For Instructions
1. Gather preconfiguration information	Gather data that is needed prior to setting up the link, such as peer host names, target phone numbers, and modem speed.	Planning a Dial-up PPP Link
2. Configure the dial-out machine	Set up PPP on the machine that makes the call over the link.	Tasks for Configuring the Dial-out Machine (Task Map)
3. Configure the dial-in server	Set up PPP on the machine that receives incoming calls.	Tasks for Configuring the Dial-in Server (Task Map)
4. Call the dial-in server	Type the `pppd` command to initiate communications.	How to Call the Dial-in Server
