FIELD
DESCRIPTION
Select the vendor-specific encapsulation for the link. There are two options in this field.
Standard PPP - Standard PPP encapsulation is used.
Encapsulation
CISCO PPP - Cisco PPP encapsulation is used.
Compression
Turn on/off Stac data compression. The default for this field is Off.

, press [ENTER] at the
message “Press ENTER to Confirm…” to save your configuration, or press [ESC] at any time to cancel.
6.2.8 Edit Script Options
The Prestige provides this script facility if text login is required before PPP negotiation is started. The
script consists of programmable sets; each set is composed of an
Expect
string and a
Send
string. After
matching a message from the server to the
Expect
field, the Prestige returns the set’s
Send
string to the
server.
For instance, a typical login sequence starts with the server printing a banner, a login prompt for you to
enter the user name and a password prompt to enter the password:
Welcome to Acme, Inc.
Login: myLogin

Password:
To handle the first prompt, you specify “ogin: ” as the
Expect
string and “myLogin” as the
Send
string in
set.
The reason for leaving out the leading “L” is to avoid having to know exactly whether it is upper or
lower case.
Similarly, you specify “word: ” as the
Expect
string and your password as the
Send
string for
the second prompt in set 2.
You can use two variables, $USERNAME and $PASSWORD (all UPPER case), to represent the actual
user name and password in the script, so they will not show in clear text.
They are replaced with the
outgoing login name and password in the advanced dial backup setup screen, when the Prestige sees them
in a
Send
string.
Please note that both variables must been entered exactly as shown.
Also note that the ordering of the sets is significant, i.e., starting from set 1, the Prestige will wait until the
Expect
string is matched before it proceeds to set 2, and so on for the rest of the script.
When both the
Expect
and the
Send
fields of the current set are empty, the Prestige will terminate the script processing
and start PPP negotiation.
This implies two things: first, the sets must be contiguous; secondly, the sets
after an empty one are ignored.
Second, the last set should match the final message sent by the server.
For
instance, if the server prints
login successful.
Starting PPP...
After you enter the password, then you should create a third set to match the final “PPP...” but without a
Send
string. Otherwise, the Prestige will start PPP prematurely right after sending your password to the
server.
If there are errors in the script and it gets stuck at a set for longer than the
Dial Timeout
in the advanced
dial backup setup screen, then Prestige will timeout and drop the line.
To debug a script, initiate a manual
call and watch the trace display to see if the sequence of messages and prompts from the server differs from
what you expect.
