connections are used for routing IP traffic, the VBRIDGE interface
must be used instead of LAN/WLAN IP addresses. Alternatively, this
interface is used in bridge only application when the IP address is
required for remote management purposes.
Data VCC operation
MW1122 supports the following encapsulations in each ATM data
virtual channel individually:
D RFC2684 LLC encapsulation for bridged IP (ETH-LLC)
D RFC2684 LLC encapsulation for routed IP (IP-LLC)
D RFC2364 Virtual circuit multiplexed PPP over AAL5 (PPP-VC)
D RFC2364 Virtual circuit multiplexed PPP over AAL5 used to
tunnel LAN/WLAN/VBRIDGE PPTP packets
(TUNNELED-PPP-VC)
If an IP address is given to a virtual channel interface and bridging is
enabled at that interface, then IP data at that interface is routed and all
other protocols are bridged. The only encapsulation which allows both
bridging and routing simultaneously is ETH-LLC. For example, it is
possible to route ETH-LLC encapsulated packets and at the same time
bridge, for example, PPPoE packets (PPPoE packets are transported
directly over Ethernet frame, not within IP packets).
4.2 Routing
Routing is based on routing entries in a routing table. Static routes are
added via the management interface and dynamic routing is done using
RIP and RIPv2. Routing is done between the Ethernet 10Base-T
interface, the wireless LAN interface and the virtual channel
connection (VCC) of the ATM/ADSL interface. MW1122 supports up
to 8 simultaneous VCCs.
MW1122 supports IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol)
proxy receive function for IP multicast applications.
4.3 Bridging
Bridging is supported to provide full protocol transparency. Bridging
can be used simultaneously with IP routing. MW1122 works as a
self-learning bridge supporting up to 1024 MAC addresses. Bridging
is done between the Ethernet 10Base-T interface, the wireless LAN
