If you have dial-out routes configured, pinging or any other attempt to send ip packets will bring the line up. There is (or was) a typo involving capitalization in the manual. The route should look like this: route-1 Password = "ascend" User-Service = Dialout-Framed-User Framed-Route = "1.2.4.1/29 1.2.4.4 1 y user1-out",... "ascend" is lower case. Route matches Framed-Address and Framed-Netmask in user1-out profile. Make sure you have a route to the Max (i.e. that the route is ripped by the Max and received where you are). After entering the route in RADIUS, you have to refresh the Max for it to take. The Max gets the routes in route-n from the RADIUS and enters them into the routing table, and rips them out if rip is turned on. </PRE> <PRE> Ralph T.
