Manually Configuring your Modem-Router

ATM Interface

Clicking on the ATM VC brings up the following screen. The Modem- Router uses ATM as its WAN interface. Protocols including 1483 Routing, 1483 Bridging, MAC Encapsulated Routing (MER), PPPoA and PPPoE with LLC-SNAP and VC- Mux encapsulations are supported for each ATM PVC.

When you have finished

entering your connection parameters, click “SAVE SETINGS”. You can verify that you have established an ADSL connection by clicking Status at the bottom of the left-hand menu.

See the table for a description of the parameters.

Manually Configuring your Modem-Router

Description

Protocol

Disable: Disables the connection.

 

1483 Bridging: Bridging is a standardized layer

 

 

2 technology. It is typically used in corporate

 

 

networks to extend the physical reach of a single

 

 

LAN segment and increase the number of stations

 

 

on a LAN without compromising performance.

 

 

Bridged data is encapsulated using the RFC1483

 

 

protocol to enable data transport.

 

PPPoA: Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM is a

 

 

method of encapsulating data for transmission to

 

 

a far point.

 

1483 Routing: 1483 Routing allows a simple, low-

 

 

cost connection to the Internet via a standard

 

 

Ethernet port. The Modem-Router looks up the

 

 

network address for each packet seen on the LAN

 

 

port. If the address is listed in the routing table as

 

 

local, it is filtered. If the address is listed under the

 

 

ADSL port, it is forwarded. Or if the address is not

 

 

found, then it is automatically forwarded to the

 

 

default Modem-Router (i.e., the Modem-Router

 

 

at the head end).

 

PPPoE: Point-to-Point over Ethernet is a common

 

 

connection method used for xDSL.

 

MAC Encapsulated Routing: If your ADSL service

 

 

is a Bridged mode service and you want to share

 

 

the connection to multiple PC’s, please select

 

 

MAC Encapsulated Routing. MER is a protocol

 

 

that allows you do IP routing with NAT enabled.
