AUI Interface (P100 only)

The Prestige 100 has an additional AUI (Attachment Unit Interface) or 10 Base-5 port in addition to a 10 Base-T port. The AUI allows you to connect the Prestige to a thicknet cable. If you have thinnet cable (10 Base-2) you need an external transceiver to connect the Prestige to the cable.

Dial-On-Demand

The Dial-On-Demand feature allows the Prestige to automatically place a call to a remote gateway based on the triggering packet’s destination without user intervention.

PPP Multilink

The Prestige can bundle multiple links in a single connection using PPP Multilink Protocol (MP). The number of links can be either statically configured or dynamically managed based on traffic demand.

The Prestige dynamically allocates bandwidth by dialing and dropping connections according to traffic demand.
