Making the PPP Target Visible to the Entire Network

If you want the PPP target to be visible from the whole network, you must enable routing on your workstation.

Enabling Routing

1. Become superuser:

   host% su Password: root password

2. Enable routing:

   # ndd -set /dev/ip ip_forwarding 1

3. Use the proxy-arp command to declare the PPP target as having the same Ethernet address as the workstation:

   # ypcat ethers | grep host Ethernet_address host # arp -s target_PPP Ethernet_address pub
