Setting your ISP Connection Type to PPPoE or PPPoA
PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) is the standard method
of connecting networked devices. It requires a user name and password
to access the network of your ISP for connecting to the Internet.
PPPoA (PPP over ATM) is similar to PPPoE, but is mostly implemented
in the UK. Select PPPoE or PPPoA and click “Next”. Then enter the
information provided by your ISP, and click “Apply Changes” to activate
your settings.
1. User Name - Enter the user name. (Assigned by your ISP).
2. Password - Enter your password. (Assigned by your ISP).
3. Retype Password - Confirm the password. (Assigned
by your ISP).
4. VPI/VCI - Enter your Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Circuit
Identifier (VCI) parameter here. (Assigned by your ISP).
5. Encapsulation - Select your encapsulation type (supplied by
your ISP) to specify how to handle multiple protocols at the ATM
transport layer.
VC-MUX: PPPoA Virtual Circuit Multiplexer (null encapsulation)
allows only one protocol running per virtual circuit with fewer
overheads.
LLC: PPPoA Logical Link Control allows multiple protocols running
over one virtual circuit (more overhead).
