The IPv4 and IPv6 tabs control IP forwarding for those protocols. The PPP tab lets
you configure options related to PPP connections. You can permit multilink connections
and enable dynamic bandwidth control. You can also configure whether the Link Control
Protocol (LCP) extension or software compression will be enabled. By default, all
these options are selected, as shown in Figure 11-37. Although these options give PPP
greater flexibility and functionality, you should look at each of these options carefully
and determine whether it is appropriate for your environment. For example, do you really
want to give your users the ability to tie up multiple lines by supporting multilink
connections? If you have hardware compression enabled, does it make sense to still use
software compression?
The last tab is the Logging tab (Figure 11-38). By default, RRAS logs both errors and
warnings. These logs are stored in the %WIDIR%\logs folder. You can select to log errors
only, errors and warnings, all events, or no events at all. Another option allows you to log
extended information that could help for debugging. This option should be used sparingly,
since it does increase the log size significantly. The default should be adequate for
most of your needs. If you want to reduce logging, at the very least you should log errors
only so that you have something to fall back on when errors are encountered.
