PPP Functions¶
sth::ppp_config¶
Purpose¶
Creates, brings up, or brings down an emulated IP-over-Point-to-Point Protocol-over-POS (PPP) session on a Spirent HLTAPI chassis.
Point-to-Point Protocol is a protocol in Data Link layer. This protocol specifies a standard method of encapsulating multi-protocol datagrams for transport over serial point-to-point links between hosts, switches, and routers. Point-to-Point Protocol includes the assignment and management of IP addresses, as well as a Link Control Protocol (LCP) and Network Control Protocols (NCPs). It has built-in security mechanisms, such as the Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) and the Password Authentication Protocol (PAP).

Arguments¶
-
-port_handle¶ Specifies the port on which PPP emulation is configured. The following example configures PPP emulation on the specified port:
sth::ppp_config \ -port_handle port1 \ -action config \ -local_auth_mode none \
-
-action¶ Specifies the action to be performed. This argument is mandatory. Possible values are described below:
config - When you specify -action config and the -port_handle argument, Spirent HLTAPI will create a PPP emulation on the specified port. When you specify -action config and -handle argument, Spirent HLTAPI will modify the the parameters of the PPP emulation specified by the -handle argument. up - Brings the PPP session up. down - Brings the PPP session down.
-
-handle¶ Specifies the PPP emulation to modify. When you specify -action config and the -handle argument, you can modify the specified PPP emulation. You can get the handle value from the returned value of the “sth::ppp_config -port_handle -action config”.
The following example modifies a created PPP emulation:
sth::ppp_config \ -handle pppHandle\ -action config \ -local_auth_mode chap\
-
-local_auth_mode¶ Specifies the local authentication protocol as one of the following values:
none - Specifies no authentication protocol. pap - Indicates the local authentication protocol to be used is the Password Authentication Protocol. PAP is a method of verifying and validating PPP clients. PAP uses a two-way handshake to verify the identity of a calling PPP client when the link is established. Please refer to RFC 1334 for more information. chap - Indicates the local authentication protocol to be used is the Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol. Like PAP, CHAP is an authentication method of verifying and validating PPP clients. CHAP verifies the identity of calling PPP clients (both when the link is established and periodically afterward) by using a three-way handshake with challenge messages. Please refer to RFC 1994 for more information.
The default value is none.
-
-password¶ Specifies the zero-byte-terminated password used by the optional Authentication Protocol. The maximum number of characters is 32. This argument is applicable only when you specify -local_auth_mode pap or -local_auth_mode chap. The default is spirent.

-
-fcs_size¶ Specifies the size of the frame check sequence (FCS) field. A FCS refers to the extra checksum characters added to a frame for error detection and correction. Possible values are 16 and 32. The default value is 32. Use this argument only when -local_fcs is enabled. 16 - Indicates the FCS field is 16 bits. 32 - Indicates the FCS field is 32 bits.
-
-ipv6_cp¶ Determines whether to enable the IPv4 Control Protocol (IPv4CP) negotiation or the IPv6 Control Protocol (IPv6CP) negotiation in NCP phase. The IP Control Protocol (IPCP) configures, enables, and disables the IP protocol modules on both ends of the point-to-point link. Possible values are 0 and 1. When it is set to 0, IPv4CP negotiation is enabled. When it is set to 1, IPv6CP negotiation is enabled. The default value is 0.
-
-local_addr¶ Specifies the IPv4CP local address. The value of the argument must be in IPv4 format. When you set the address to 0.0.0.0, the peer will provide its value. This argument is applicable only when -ipv6_cp is set to 0. The default value is 0.0.0.0.
-
-local_addr_given¶ Determines whether the local address that is set by -local_addr or -local_intf_id is to be negotiated. Possible values are 0 (disable) and 1 (enable). The default is 0. If this argument is set to 0, the local address will not be negotiated and the local address will be set by the peer.
-
-local_addr_override¶ Determines whether to allow the peer to override the local setting for the local IP address specified by -local_addr or -local_intf_id. Possible values are 0 and 1. The default value is 0. If it is set to 1, it allows the remote end to override the local IP address compulsively. If it is set to 0, it does not allow the remote end to override the local IP address. When you specify -local_addr 0.0.0.0 or -local_intf_id 0:0:0:0, -local_addr_override is automatically set to 1.
-
-local_intf_id¶ Specifies the IPv6CP 64-bit local interface identifier for the IPv6 Interface-Identifier configuration option. The value of this argument must be in hexadecimal format of “aaaa:bbbb:cccc:dddd”. The IPv6CP 64-bit local interface identifier specified by this argument is the latter 64 bits of an IPv6 address. The first 64 bits is “fe80::” that indicates the IPv6 address is a local link address. Please refer to RFC 5072 for more information. This argument is applicable only when you set -ipv6_cp to 1. The default value is 0:0:0:0.
-
-peer_addr¶ Specifies the IPv4CP address of the remote end, if negotiation about the remote IP address is required. The value of this argument must be in IPv4 format. The default value is 0.0.0.0. See the description of the -local_addr option for more information.
-
-peer_addr_given¶ Specifies whether the peer IP address specified by -peer_addr or -peer_intf_id is to be negotiated. Possible values are 0 and 1. The default value is 0. When it is set to 1, the peer IP address is to be negotiated. If this argument is set to 0, the peer IP address will not be negotiated.
-
-peer_addr_override¶ Determines whether Spirent HLTAPI allows the peer to override the local setting for the peer IP address. Possible values are 0 (disable) and 1 (enable). The default value is 0. When it is set to 1, Spirent HLTAPI allows the peer to override the local setting for the peer IP address automatically. When you specify -peer_addr 0.0.0.0 or -peer_intf_id 0:0:0:0, -peer_addr_override is automatically set to 1.
-
-peer_intf_id¶ Specifies the IPv6CP 64-bit remote interface identifier for the IPv6 Interface-Identifier configuration option. The value of this argument must be in hexadecimal format of “aaaa:bbbb:cccc:dddd”. Please refer to -local_intf_id for more information. This argument is applicable only when you set -ipv6_cp to 1. The default value is 0:0:0:0.
-
-lcp_echo_interval¶ Specifies the time, measured in seconds, between Echo Requests for link integrity. Possible values range from 0 to 65535. The default value is 0, which disables the Echo Requests.
-
-lcp_local_mru¶ Specifies the Maximum Receive Unit (MRU) size in bytes for the local side. MRU is data sent to inform remote systems of the local system’s maximum receive packet size. Possible values range from 128 to 65535. The default value is 4096. This parameter is valid only if you set -local_mru to 1.
-
-local_fcs¶ Enables or disables the FCS for the local interface. Possible values are 0 (disable) and 1 (enable). The default value is 0.
-
-local_magic¶ Enables or disables the magic number option, which is used to detect PPP loops. Possible values are 0 (disable) and 1 (enable). The default is 0. When this option is enabled, the local end sends a LCP Configure Request packet with the magic number option, which contains a randomly generated number. When the Configure Request packet from the peer is received, its magic number is compared with the sent magic number. If the magic numbers match, the path contains a loop. You must set this parameter to 0 for successful loopbacked PPP.
-
-local_mpls_cp¶ Enables or disables a control protocol for traffic going through MPLS tunnels. The control protocol is used with CR-LDP and RSVP routing emulation. Possible values are 0 (disable) and 1 (enable). When this argument is set to 1, the MPLS control protocol is enabled. The default value is 0.
-
-local_mru¶ Enables or disables the MRU negotiation. The MRU negotiation sets the size in bytes of the maximum receive unit for the local PPP session. Possible values are 0 and 1. When this option is set to 1, the MRU is negotiated. The default value is 0.
-
-local_osinl_cp¶ Enables or disables the Network Layer Control Protocol (NLCP) required for OSI protocols. Possible values are 0 and 1. When it is set to 1, the OSINL control protocol is enabled. The default value is 0.

Return Values¶
Depending on the specific language that HLTAPI uses, the function returns a keyed list/dictionary/hash (See Introduction for more information on return value formats) using the following keys (with corresponding data):
status Success (1) or failure (0) of the operation.
log An error message (if the operation failed).
handle A handle that identifies the PPP emulation created by the
sth::ppp_config command.
Description¶
The sth::ppp_config function configures, brings up or brings down an
emulated PPP session on a specified test port. Use the -port_handle
argument to specify the port for the PPP session. Use the -action
argument to specify the action to perform. (See the -action argument
description for information about the actions.)
The sth::ppp_config command provides two ways to indicate the PPP address used on the local end of the Point-to-Point link.
You can configure the local IPv4 or IPv6 address directly by specifying the arguments below:
-local_addr (-local_intf_id)
-local_addr_given
-local_addr_override
In addition, when the local IPv4 address specified by -local_addr is 0.0.0.0 or the -local_intf_id argument is set to 0:0:0:0, you can get the local address by negotiating with the peer end. You must specify the following arguments for the peer end in this case:
-peer_addr (-peer_intf_id)
-peer_addr_given
-peer_addr_override
You can refer to the examples below for more information.
