About the AES-100

The AES-100 is an ADSL (Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line) to Ethernet switch. It allows you to multiplex traffic from up to 16 ADSL lines to an Ethernet network before it is forwarded to the Internet.

General Syntax Conventions

“Enter” means for you to type one or more characters and press the carriage return. “Select” or “Choose” means for you to select one from the predefined choices.

For brevity’s sake, we will use “e.g.” as shorthand for “for instance”, and “i.e.” as shorthand for “that is” or “in other words” throughout this manual.
