No, that's just the way it works on a portmaster. On other terminal
servers, you can globally set the MTU, or set it on a per port basis, and
the PPP service will only negotiate a connection up to that MTU size.
1500, BTW is just an arbitrary number the PM chooses.
You are perfectly free (the authors of ComOS) to allow your customers to
choose what they would like their maximum negotiated MTU to be, you just
have chosen not to.
Fair enough, but don't blame in on PAP or PPP, because the protocols allow
it, but your implementation does not.
It would be a nice feature to add to the PM series, IMHO.
