Basic Configuration

5.2Configuring PPP Interfaces

When powered on, the HM210dp/di initiates a connection through your DSL line to your ISP.

The Point-to-Point (PPP) protocol is commonly used between ISPs and their customers to identify and control various communication properties, including:

Identifying the type of service the ISP provides to a given customer.

Identifying the customer to the ISP through a username and password login.

Enabling the ISP to assign Internet information to the customer’s computers.

Your ISP may or may not use the PPP protocol. Contact your ISP to determine if you will need to change the default settings in order to connect to their server.

5.2.1Adding PPP Interfaces

If you intend to use more than one type of service from your ISP, the device can be configured with multiple PPP interfaces, each with unique logon and other properties.

Follow this procedure to define properties for a PPP interface:

1.Select WAN > PPP to display the Point to Point Protocol (PPP) Configuration page.
