Encapsulation
Select the type of encapsulation that will be used for this link.
•PPPoE specifies Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet encapsulation.
•PPPoA specifies Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM encapsulation.
•RFC 1483 Routing (AAL5 SNAP) specifies that each PVC can carry
multiple protocols.

If you are editing a connection, the encapsulation is shown, but not editable. If you
need to change the encapsulation type, delete the connection, and recreate it,
using the encapsulation type you need.

the path used for a number of connections. Obtain this value from your service
provider.
If you are editing an existing connection, this field is disabled. If you need to
change this value, delete the connection and recreate it using the value you need.
