poff [ -r ] [ -d ] [ -c ] [ -a ] [ -h ] [ isp-name ]
plog [ arguments ]
Описание (Description)
This manual page describes the pon, plog and poff scripts, which
allow users to control PPP connections.
pon
pon, invoked without arguments, runs the /etc/ppp/ppp_on_boot
file, if it exists and is executable. Otherwise, a PPP connection
will be started using configuration from /etc/ppp/peers/provider.
This is the default behaviour unless an isp-name argument is
given.
For instance, to use ISP configuration "myisp" run:
pon myisp
pon will then use the options file /etc/ppp/peers/myisp. You can
pass additional options after the ISP name, too. pon can be used
to run multiple, simultaneous PPP connections.
poff
poff closes a PPP connection. If more than one PPP connection
exists, the one named in the argument to poff will be killed,
e.g.
poff myprovider2
will terminate the connection to myprovider2, and leave the PPP
connections to e.g. "myprovider1" or "myprovider3" up and
running.
poff takes the following command line options:
-r causes the connection to be redialed after it is
dropped.
-d toggles the state of pppd's debug option.
-c causes pppd(8) to renegotiate compression.
-a stops all running ppp connections. If the argument
isp-name is given it will be ignored.
-h displays help information.
-v prints the version and exits.
If no argument is given, poff will stop or signal pppd if
and only if there is exactly one running. If more than one
connection is active, it will exit with an error code of
1.
plog
plog shows you the last few lines of /var/log/ppp.log. If that
file doesn't exist, it shows you the last few lines of your
/var/log/syslog file, but excluding the lines not generated by
pppd. This script makes use of the tail(1) command, so arguments
that can be passed to tail(1) can also be passed to plog.
Note: the plog script can only be used by root or another system
administrator in group "adm", due to security reasons. Also, to
have all pppd-generated information in one logfile, that plog can
show, you need the following line in your /etc/syslog.conf file:
local2.* -/var/log/ppp.log
