7.7Internet Access Configuration

Menu 4 allows you to enter the Internet Access information in one screen. Menu 4 is actually a simplified setup for one of the remote nodes that you can access in Menu 11. Before you configure your Prestige for Internet access, you need to collect your Internet account information from your ISP and telephone company.

Use the following table to record your Internet Account Information. Note that if you are using PPPoA or PPPoE encapsulation, then the only ISP information you need is a login name and password. You only need to know the Ethernet Encapsulation Gateway IP address if you are using ENET ENCAP encapsulation.
