I have built some tunnels using PPP over TCP and I would like to change them
to PPP over UDP to eliminate some overhead. The man page explains PPP over
TCP very well. When I change inetd.conf to listen on a udp port the
connection can not be established. What does the line in inetd.conf need to
look like for UDP? Do I need to change my ppp.conf on either end of the
connection when switching from TCP to UDP, besides changing the protocol in
the device declaration?
Here is the line in inetd.conf that I tried:
ppp-in dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/ppp ppp -direct ppp-in
Here is ppp.conf for the server (ppp called from inetd):
default:
set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command
ppp-in:
set timeout 0
set ifaddr 172.16.1.1 10.10.83.17 255.255.255.248
add 10.10.83.16/29 HISADDR
Here is ppp.conf for the client:
default:
set escape 0xff
set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command Connect hdlc
set dial
set timeout 0
ppp-in:
set device wesson:6668/udp
set ifaddr 10.10.83.17 172.16.1.1 255.255.255.255
