The PPP Fields in an Alarm Station’s Definition
Scope
This feature is for use in complex systems involving many Multi-Media, Multi-Media LT and older
Multi units using modems and a RAS server to connect to a number of alarm stations.
General case
For simple systems involving only a few units, Honeywell recommends that static PPP User Names
and Passwords be typed in an alarm station’s definition.
PPP fields can be left blank
When adding or updating a Multi-Media alarm station, you have the option of leaving the PPP
fields blank. The sites that report to that alarm station will use their site’s name for PPP fields that
are left blank.
Updating unit Security and network routers
For this feature to take effect, your organization’s Multi System Administrator (Multi SA) needs to
update security on each unit that plans to use alarm stations where PPP fields were left blank. Use
of the feature involves reconfiguring network routers to allow the unit names or passwords through
for further processing.
