햳LANmonitor automatically creates a new entry in the device list and ini-
tially displays the status of the transfer channels. Start your Web browser
and enter any web page you like. LANmonitor now shows a connection
being established on one channel and the name of the remote site being
called. As soon as the connection is established, a plus sign against the
communication channel entry indicates that further information on this
channel is available. Click on the plus sign or double-click such entry to
open a tree structure in which you can view various information.
In this example, you can determine from the PPP protocol information the
IP address assigned to your router by the provider for the duration of the

right mouse button. You may be required to enter a configuration pass-
