Forcing the PPP Interface into a Passive Mode

You can optionally force a static or dynamic PPP interface into passive mode before LCP negotiation begins, for a period of one second. This delay enables slow clients to start up and initiate the LCP negotiation. You can force the PPP interface into a passive mode from the Interface Configuration Mode, the Subinterface Configuration mode, and the Profile Configuration mode.

To force the PPP interface into a passive mode:

• (Optional) From the Interface Configuration mode, specify the following command:
  host1(config-if)#ppp passive-mode

  Use the no version to disable passive mode.
