| |
I'm running a RedHat 5.0 system with 2.1.84 and pppd 2.3.3. Demand dialing is turned on and I can successfully bring the link up when needed. I am having a problem bringing the link down for inactivity. I've discovered that the reason is I'm getting echo requests every five seconds from the remote end. Is there a way to get pppd to ignore the echo requests when considering whether I have an idle link? Following is a snippet from the debug log:
