Router with IPoA Connections
The IP over ATM connection method uses a different method to connect to the WAN. S ome IPoA connections
operate in a way similar to peer-to-peer connections, and therefore do not require a global IP address for the
WAN interface. Some networks using IPoA do require global IP settings. In this case the settings are assigned
manually or by DHCP. T he default configuration for IPoA is peer-to-peer connection, that is, global IP settings
are not required.
