30       Notes:
31
32              1)  [DEVICE]  is given as the full path to the cdc-wdm character
33              device, e.g.:
34
35              /dev/cdc-wdm0
36
37              2) The mbim-network script requires a profile  to  work.  Unless
38              explicitly specified with `--profile', the file is assumed to be
39              available in the following path:
40
41              /etc/mbim-network.conf
42
43              3) The APN to use should be configured in the  profile,  in  the
44              following way (e.g. assuming APN is called 'internet'):
45
46              APN=internet
47
48              4)  Optional  APN user/password strings may be given in the fol‐
49              lowing way:
50
51              APN_USER=user APN_PASS=password
52
53              5) If APN user/password is specified, the authentication  proto‐
54              col to use (one of PAP, CHAP or MSCHAPV2) must also be specified
55              in the following way:
56
57              APN_AUTH=protocol
58
59              6) If you want to instruct the mbim-network script  to  use  the
60              mbim-proxy  setup,  you  can  do so by configuring the following
61              line in the profile:
62
63              PROXY=yes
64
65              7) Once the mbim-network script reports a successful  connection
66              you  still need to run a DHCP client on the associated WWAN net‐
67              work interface.
