Internet Setup

PVC Connection. If your ADSL account provides multiple permanent virtual circuits (PVCs), use this control to specify the one you will configure. The Gateway can handle up to eight PVCs. They may be used to carry different services or connect to different networks. Each PVC is identified by a unique combination of VCI and VPI numbers (see “Virtual Circuit,” below).

Internet Connection Type. The Gateway supports six Encapsulation methods: RFC 1483 Bridged, RFC 1483 Routed, IPoA, RFC 2516 PPPoE, RFC 2364 PPPoA, and Bridged Mode Only. Select the appropriate type of encapsulation from the drop-down menu. Each Basic Setup screen and available features will differ depending on what type of encapsulation you select.

VC Settings. You will configure your Virtual Circuit (VC) settings in this section.
