Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) user names and passwords are only used in some
dial-up connections.
This procedure might not apply to your Multi system.
Purpose
PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) Dial-up Networking usernames and passwords are used for
some dial-up connections. The PPP username and password for an alarm station usually
differs from the PPP username and password needed to access a RAS server. The following
situations may apply:
• The Multi SA includes the RAS server in the connection definition.
• See RAS Server on page 53.
• See also Dial-Up Technical Note
• The Operator to RAS server connection is in front of one or more units. Using a
connection to access a RAS server before using View is illustrated in sections:
• Using a RAS Server Before Connecting to Units
• Dial-Up Technical Note
• A unit connecting by dial-up to an alarm station's modem. To automate the process of
a Multi-Media unit sending alarms to the View application over telephone lines, use
Admin to enter the PPP username and password for a PC in the definition of an alarm
station. See Dial-Up Connection to an Alarm Station
• A unit connecting by dial-up to a RAS server that is in front of a Multi-Media alarm
station. Using an alarm callback that includes a RAS server is illustrated in
Connection to an Alarm Station
There may be situations when a specific user account must have access quickly denied for
a Rapid Eye site (for security reasons, termination, and so on). If your Multi system is
accessed using a laptop, or by many PCs on your network, it could be inconvenient to
physically prevent a rogue user from accessing the Multi software.
The best solution is to Deny access to sites for the account, as explained in
to a User of Your Multi System, page 214. This is quicker than deleting the rogue account
and more effective than changing the account's password.
Stopping a User in Session
On networked units, you can end a rogue user's use of sessions (maintenance, live video,
and so on) by using the Admin and View applications in combination. See
