+Sets the file where the round-trip time (RTT) of LCP echo-request frames
+will be logged.

.B linkname \fIname\fR

-.B max-tls-version \fIstring
+.B max\-tls-\version \fIstring
(EAP-TLS, or PEAP) Configures the max allowed TLS version used during
negotiation with a peer. The default value for this is \fI1.2\fR. Values
allowed for this option is \fI1.0.\fR, \fI1.1\fR, \fI1.2\fR, \fI1.3\fR.

name to \fIname\fR.)
.TP
+.B netmask \fImask
+Set the IPV4 network mask on the PPP interface to the given
+\fImask\fR, which can be given in dotted-quad notation or as a single
+hexadecimal number preceded by 0x. This option is not normally
+needed because the PPP interface is a point-to-point connection, but

+.TP
.B noaccomp
Disable Address/Control compression in both directions (send and
receive).
.TP
-.B need-peer-eap
+.B need\-peer\-eap
(EAP-TLS) Require the peer to verify our authentication credentials.

-.B pppoe-service \fIname
+.B pppoe\-service \fIname
Connect to specified PPPoE service name. For backward compatibility also
\fBrp_pppoe_service\fP option name is supported.
.TP
-.B pppoe-ac \fIname
+.B pppoe\-ac \fIname
Connect to specified PPPoE access concentrator name. For backward
compatibility also \fBrp_pppoe_ac\fP option name is supported.

-.B pppoe-verbose \fIn
+.B pppoe\-verbose \fIn

.SH OPTIONS FILES
Options can be taken from files as well as the command line. Pppd
Pppd invokes scripts at various stages in its processing which can be
used to perform site-specific ancillary processing. These scripts are
usually shell scripts, but could be executable code files instead.
-Pppd does not wait for the scripts to finish (except for the net-init,
-net-pre-up and ip-pre-up scripts). The scripts are
+Pppd does not wait for the scripts to finish (except for the net\-init,
+net\-pre\-up and ip\-pre\-up scripts). The scripts are
executed as root (with the real and effective user-id set to 0), so
that they can do things such as update routing tables or run
privileged daemons. Be careful that the contents of these scripts do
indicate a bug in one or other implementation.)
