Easy Setup 6-5

2. Easy Setup Profile

The Easy Setup Profile screen is where you configure the parameters that control the Netopia 3387W-ENT’s connection to a specific remote destination, usually your ISP or a corporate site. On a Netopia 3387W-ENT you can add up to 15 more connection profiles, for a total of 16, although you can only use one at a time, unless you are using Virtual Private Networks (VPNs).

Note: This screen only appears if you have enabled PPPoE in the previous screen. Therefore, you need only change or enter values in the fields as noted in the following:

Toggle to Yes if this is a single IP address ISP account.

Enter basic information about your WAN connection with this screen.

1.To enable address translation, toggle Address Translation Enabled to Yes (the default). You need not change this unless you have a specific reason. For more information on Network Address Translation, see the Firmware User’s Guide chapter on “Multiple Network Address Translation (MultiNAT)“.

2.Unnumbered IP Addressing is enabled by default. (You may choose Numbered addressing from the pop-up menu, if specifically instructed to do so.) Unless otherwise specified by your service provider, accept the default Unnumbered, and do not change the next two values.

If you selected Unnumbered IP Addressing:

the editable field labeled Remote IP Address should be 127.0.0.2 (the default). Press Return.

the editable field labeled Remote IP Mask should be 255.255.255.255 (the default). Press Return.

3.Select PPP Authentication and press Return. The authentication protocol and user name/password combinations you enter must be assigned or agreed to in advance between you and your ISP.

From the pop-up menu that appears, select the authentication method your ISP uses: PAP (Password Authentication Protocol), CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol), or None.

PAP is the most common, and requires you to enter a User Name and Password in the next two fields.

CHAP requires you to enter a Host Name and Secret in the next two fields.

4.Press the Down arrow key until you reach NEXT SCREEN. Press Return to bring up the next screen.
