Advanced Configuration

QoS Type  Select from the drop-down menu: CBR (Continuous Bit Rate) to specify fixed bandwidth for voice or data traffic; UBR (Unspecific Bit Rate) for application that are not time-sensitive, such as e-mail; or VBR (Variable Bit Rate) for bursty traffic and bandwidth-sharing with other applications.

PCR Rate  For the Peak Cell Rate (PCR), divide the DSL line rate by 424 to get the maximum rate the sender can send cells. Enter the rate in the field (if required by your service provider).

SCR Rate  The Sustain Cell Rate (SCR) sets the average cell rate that can be transmitted. The SCR value is normally less than the PCR value. Enter the rate in the field (if required by your service provider).

Autodetect  Select Enable to have the settings automatically entered, or select Disable to enter the values manually.

Virtual Circuit  These fields consist of two items: VPI (Virtual Path Identifier) and VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier). Enter the settings provided by your ISP.

DSL Modulation  Select the appropriate mode: MultiMode, T1.413, G.dmt, G.lite, ADSL2, or ADSL2+. Contact your ISP if you are not sure which mode to use.

Follow the instructions for your type of encapsulation.

RFC 2364 PPPoA

Some DSL-based ISPs use PPPoA (Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM) to establish Internet connections. If you are connected to the Internet through a DSL line, check with your ISP to see if they use PPPoA. If they do, you will have to enable PPPoA.

Connect on Demand: Max Idle Time  You can configure the Gateway to cut the Internet connection after it has been inactive for a specified period of time (Max Idle Time). If your Internet connection has been terminated due to

inactivity, Connect on Demand enables the Gateway to automatically re-establish your connection as soon as you attempt to access the Internet again. To use this option, select Connect on Demand. In the Max Idle Time field, enter the number of minutes you want to have elapsed before your Internet connection terminates. The default Max Idle Time is 5 minutes.

Keep Alive: Redial Period  If you select this option, the Gateway will periodically check your Internet connection. If you are disconnected, then the Gateway will automatically re-establish your connection. To use this option, select Keep Alive. In the Redial Period field, you specify how often you want the Gateway to check the Internet connection. The default Redial Period is

30seconds.

RFC 2516 PPPoE

Some DSL-based ISPs use PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) to establish Internet connections. If you are connected to the Internet through a DSL line, check with your ISP to see if they use PPPoE. If they do, you will have to enable PPPoE.
