CONFIGURING THE BARRICADE

ATM

Parameter	Description
Protocol	•	Disable: Disables the connection.
	•	1483 Bridging: Bridging is a standardized layer 2 technology.
		It is typically used in corporate networks to extend the
		physical reach of a single LAN segment and increase the
		number of stations on a LAN without compromising
		performance. Bridged data is encapsulated using the
		RFC1483 protocol to enable data transport.
	•	PPPoA: Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM is a method of
		encapsulating data for transmission to a far point.
	•	1483 Routing: 1483 Routing allows a simple, low cost
		connection to the Internet via a standard 10BASE-T port.
		The router looks up the network address for each packet
		seen on the LAN port. If the address is listed in the routing
		table as local, it is filtered. If the address is listed under the
		ADSL port, it is forwarded. Or if the address is not found,
		then it is automatically forwarded to the default router (i.e.,
		the ADSL router at the head end.)
IP Address	IP address of the ATM interface.

Subnet Mask Subnet mask of the ATM interface.
