.Dt ISPPPCONTROL 8
.Sh NAME
.Nm ispppcontrol
.Nd display or set parameters for an isdn4bsd isp interface
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Nm
.Op Fl v
.Ar ifname
.Op Ar parameter Ns Op \&= Ns Ar value
.Op Ar ...
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Xr i4bisppp 4
driver might require a number of additional arguments or optional
parameters besides the settings that can be adjusted with
.Xr ifconfig 8 .
These are things like authentication protocol parameters, but also
other tunable configuration variables. The
.Nm
utility can be used to display the current settings, or adjust these
parameters as required.
.Pp
For whatever intent
.Nm
is being called, at least the parameter
.Ar ifname
needs to be specified, naming the interface for which the settings
are to be performed or displayed. Use
.Xr ifconfig 8 ,
or
.Xr netstat 1
to see which interfaces are available.
.Pp
If no other parameter is given,
.Nm
will just list the current settings for
.Ar ifname
and exit. The reported settings include the current PPP phase the
interface is in, which can be one of the names
.Em dead ,
.Em establish ,
.Em authenticate ,
.Em network ,
or
.Em terminate .
If an authentication protocol is configured for the interface, the
name of the protocol to be used, as well as the system name to be used
or expected will be displayed, plus any possible options to the
authentication protocol if applicable. Note that the authentication
secrets (sometimes also called
.Em keys )
are not being returned by the underlying system call, and are thus not
displayed.
.Pp
If any additional parameter is supplied, superuser privileges are
required, and the command works in
.Ql set
mode. This is normally done quietly, unless the option
.Fl v
is also enabled, which will cause a final printout of the settings as
described above once all other actions have been taken. Use of this
mode will be rejected if the interface is currently in any other phase
than
.Em dead .
Note that you can force an interface into
.Em dead
phase by calling
.Xr ifconfig 8
with the parameter
.Ql down .
.Pp
The currently supported parameters include:
.Bl -tag -offset indent -width indent
.It Ar authproto Ns \&= Ns Em protoname
Set both, his and my authentication protocol to
.Em protoname .
The protocol name can be one of
.Ql chap ,
.Ql pap ,
or
.Ql none .
In the latter case, the use of an authentication protocol will be
turned off for the named interface. This has the side-effect of
clearing the other authentication-related parameters for this
interface as well (i. e., system name and authentication secret will
be forgotten).
.It Ar myauthproto Ns \&= Ns Em protoname
Same as above, but only for my end of the link. I. e., this is the
protocol when remote is authenticator, and I am the peer required to
authenticate.
.It Ar hisauthproto Ns \&= Ns Em protoname
Same as above, but only for his end of the link.
.It Ar myauthname Ns \&= Ns Em name
Set my system name for the authentication protocol.
.It Ar hisauthname Ns \&= Ns Em name
Set his system name for the authentication protocol. For CHAP, this
will only be used as a hint, causing a warning message if remote did
supply a different name. For PAP, it's the name remote must use to
authenticate himself (in connection with his secret).
.It Ar myauthsecret Ns \&= Ns Em secret
Set my secret (key, password) for use in the authentication phase.
For CHAP, this will be used to compute the response hash value, based
on remote's challenge. For PAP, it will be transmitted as plaintext
together with the system name. Don't forget to quote the secrets from
the shell if they contain shell metacharacters (or white space).
.It Ar myauthkey Ns \&= Ns Em secret
Same as above.
.It Ar hisauthsecret Ns \&= Ns Em secret
Same as above, to be used if we are authenticator and the remote peer
needs to authenticate.
.It Ar hisauthkey Ns \&= Ns Em secret
Same as above.
.It Ar callin
Require remote to authenticate himself only when he's calling in, but
not when we are caller. This is required for some peers that do not
implement the authentication protocols symmetrically (like Ascend
routers, for example).
.It Ar always
The opposite of
.Ar callin .
Require remote to always authenticate, regardless of which side is
placing the call. This is the default, and will not be explicitly
displayed in
.Ql list
mode.
.It Ar norechallenge
Only meaningful with CHAP. Do not re-challenge peer once the initial
CHAP handshake was successful. Used to work around broken peer
implementations that can't grok being re-challenged once the
connection is up.
.It Ar rechallenge
With CHAP, send re-challenges at random intervals while the connection
is in network phase. (The intervals are currently in the range of 300
through approximately 800 seconds.) This is the default, and will not
be explicitly displayed in
.Ql list
mode.
.It Ar lcp-timeout Ns \&= Ns Em timeout-value
Allows to change the value of the LCP timeout. The default value of the
LCP timeout is currently set to 3 seconds which is too high for some
remote PPP implentations. The timeout-value must specified in milliseconds.
.It Ar enable-vj
Enable negotiation of Van Jacobsen header compression.
.It Ar disable-vj
Disable negotiation of Van Jacobsen header compression.
.El
.Sh EXAMPLES
.Bd -literal
# ispppcontrol isp0
isp0: phase=dead
myauthproto=chap myauthname="uriah"
hisauthproto=chap hisauthname="ifb-gw" norechallenge
lcp timeout: 3.000 s
enable_vj: on
.Ed
.Pp
Display the settings for isp0. The interface is currently in
.Em dead
phase, i. e. the LCP layer is down, and no traffic is possible. Both
ends of the connection use the CHAP protocol, my end tells remote the
system name
.Ql uriah ,
and remote is expected to authenticate by the name
.Ql ifb-gw .
Once the initial CHAP handshake was successful, no further CHAP
challenges will be transmitted. There are supposedly some known CHAP
secrets for both ends of the link which are not being shown.
.Pp
.Bd -literal
# ispppcontrol isp0 \e
authproto=chap \e
myauthname=uriah myauthsecret='some secret' \e
hisauthname=ifb-gw hisauthsecret='another' \e
norechallenge
.Ed
.Pp
A possible call to
.Nm
that could have been used to bring the interface into the state shown
by the previous example.
