DSL-500T ADSL Router User’s Guide
Multiple Virtual Connections
The Router can use up to eight simultaneous PVC connections. These additional connections occupy the same bandwidth used for ADSL service. Additional PVC connections can be added to establish a private connection to remote offices or maintain a server accessible through the WAN port. Provision for additional PVC profiles must be done through the telephone company or telecommunications services company. The remote user must have suitable ADSL equipment for a successful connection.
The New Connection menu is used to configure additional WAN connection that can operate simultaneously with the other connections. PPPoE type WAN connections can be disconnected or connected as needed. Non- PPPoE type connections must be deleted from the configuration settings if you want to disable them.
To set up additional virtual connections, follow the procedure described in Create a New Connection. Keep in mind that each new connection must have a VPI/VCI value set that is unique to the Router. The numbers for these values will be provided by your service provider.
PPPoE and PPPoA connections may be connected and disconnected with the Connect and Disconnect menu buttons located in the connection settings menu.
The remaining connection types (Bridge, Static, DHCP and CLIP) connect upon saving the settings and restarting the Router. These connections can be disconnected only if the connection set is deleted. To delete any WAN connection set, click on the Delete button in the menu for the connection.
