CCNA 4 v3.1 Module 3 PPP 1 Objectives 2 Introduction to Serial Communication Transmission system encodes bits into electrical voltage using methods like NRZ-L or AMI Some of the many serial communications standards include the following: RS-232-E V.35 High-Speed Serial Interface (HSSI) 3 Time-Division Multiplexing 4 Demarcation Point The point in the network where the responsibility of the service provider or "telco" ends. 5 DTE-DCE 6 Serial Connection Options 7 DTE/DCE Interface • The DTE/DCE interface for a particular standard defines the following specifications: Mechanical/physical - Number of pins and connector type Electrical - Defines voltage levels for 0 and 1 Functional - Specifies the functions that are performed by assigning meanings to each of the signaling lines in the interface Procedural - Specifies the sequence of events for transmitting data 8 HDLC Encapsulation 9 Configuring HDLC Encapsulation 10 Troubleshooting a Serial Interface 11 Troubleshooting a Serial Interface • Five possible problem states can be identified in the interface status line of the show interface serial display: Serial x is down, line protocol is down. Serial x is up, line protocol is down. Serial x is up, line protocol is up (looped). Serial x is up, line protocol is down (disabled). Serial x is administratively down, line protocol is down. 12 PPP Layered Architecture 13 PPP and the Data Link Layer 14 PPP and the Network Layer 15 Establishing a PPP Session 16 PPP Operation 17 Link Control Protocol Options 18 PPP Configuration Options 19 Network Control Protocol 20 PPP Authentication Protocols 21 PPP Authentication Protocols 22 Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) 23 Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) CHAP provides protection against playback attack through the use of a variable challenge value that is unique and unpredictable. 24 PPP Encapsulation and Authentication Process 25 CHAP Authentication Process 26 Configuring PPP 27 Configuring PPP Authentication 28 PAP Configuration 29 CHAP Configuration 30 Verifying PPP 31 PPP Configuration Commands 32 Debug PPP Authentication 33 Summary 34
