D-Link DI-1162M manual Wan

DI-1162/DI-1162M Remote Access Router

WAN

The parameters are described below:

♦Description – This is a user-defined, 32-character identifier used to name the WAN.

♦Modem Init String – This parameter is valid only for asynchronous connections. It is a user input AT command string to initialize a modem or ISDN TA attached to the WAN interface. Please refer to your WAN device’s handbook for more information about using initialization command strings.

The default setting is for Hayes-compatible asynchronous modems and is AT&FS0=1X1, where:

AT–	The mandatory first two characters of an AT command string.
&F–	Initializes the modem to its default settings.
S0=1–	Sets the modem to auto-answer.
X1 –	Displays the established connection speed to the dial-in user (e.g. Connection established at 56.6
	kps).

♦Protocol – This is a protocol used to encapsulate IP messages over synchronous and asynchronous serial links. The device being connected to must be using the same protocol for a connection to succeed. The five protocols are described:

1.CISCO_HDLC – This is a serial line encapsulation method for transmitting datagrams over synchronous serial point-to-point links.

2.SLIP – Serial Line Internet Protocol. A serial line encapsulation method for transmitting datagrams over asynchronous serial point-to-point links. If linking the router to a computer, each end must know the other’s IP address.

3.PPP_SYN – This serial line encapsulation provides a method for transmitting datagrams over synchronous serial point-to-point links. Unlike the SLIP protocol, PPP can determine the IP address configuration automatically.
