LABEL DESCRIPTION
General
Active Select the check box to activate or clear the check box to
deactivate this connection.
Node Name Enter a unique, descriptive name of up to 13 ASCII characters for
this connection.
Mode Select Routing from the drop-down list box if your ISP allows
multiple computers to share an Internet account.
If you select Bridge, the P-660H-T1v3s will forward any packet
that it does not route to this remote node; otherwise, the packets
are discarded.
Encapsulation Select the method of encapsulation used by your ISP from the
drop-down list box. Choices vary depending on the mode you
select in the Mode field.
If you select Bridge in the Mode field, select either PPPoA or
RFC 1483.
If you select Routing in the Mode field, select PPPoA, RFC
1483, ENET ENCAP or PPPoE.
User Name (PPPoA and PPPoE encapsulation only) Enter the user name
exactly as your ISP assigned. If assigned a name in the form
user@domain where domain identifies a service name, then enter
both components exactly as given.
Password (PPPoA and PPPoE encapsulation only) Enter the password
associated with the user name above.
Service Name (PPPoE only) Type the name of your PPPoE service here.
Multiplex Select the method of multiplexing used by your ISP from the
drop-down list. Choices are VC or LLC.
By prior agreement, a protocol is assigned a specific virtual
circuit, for example, VC1 will carry IP. If you select VC, specify
separate VPI and VCI numbers for each protocol.
For LLC-based multiplexing or PPP encapsulation, one VC carries
multiple protocols with protocol identifying information being
contained in each packet header. In this case, only one set of VPI
and VCI numbers need be specified for all protocols.
VPI The valid range for the VPI is 0 to 255. Enter the VPI assigned to
you.
VCI The valid range for the VCI is 32 to 65535 (0 to 31 is reserved for
local management of ATM traffic). Enter the VCI assigned to you.
