AC Name This field is optional. Specify the hostname of a remote access concentrator if
there are two access concentrators (or BRAS) on the network or if you want to
allow PAE translation to the specified access concentrator. In this case, the IES-
612-51A checks the AC name field in the BRAS's reply PDU. If there is a
mismatch, the IES-612-51A drops this PDU. (This is not recorded as an PPPoE
AC System Error in the PPPoA to PPPoE Status screen, however.)
Service Name This field is optional. Specify the name of the service that uses this PVC. This
must be a service name that you configure on the remote access concentrator.
Hellotime Specify the timeout, in seconds, for the PPPoE session. Enter 0 if there is no
timeout.
Apply Click this to add or save channel settings on the selected port.
This saves your changes to the IES-612-51A’s volatile memory. The IES-612-
51A loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Config
Save link on the navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile
memory when you are done configuring.
Cancel Click Cancel to start configuring the screen again.
Show Port Select which DSL port(s) for which to display PPPoA to PPPoE conversion

the screen where you can look at the current status of this PPPoA-to-PPPoE
conversion. (See Section 28.3 on page 206.)
Note: At the time of writing, you cannot edit the VPI and VCI. If
you want to change them, add a new PVC with the desired
settings. Then, delete any unwanted PVCs.
Port This field displays the number of the DSL port on which the PVC is configured.
VPI/VCI This field displays the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Circuit Identifier
(VCI). The VPI and VCI identify a channel on this port.
PVID This is the PVID (Port VLAN ID) assigned to untagged frames or priority frames
(0 VID) received on this channel.
Priority This is the priority value (0 to 7) added to incoming frames without a (IEEE
802.1p) priority tag.
Hellotime This field displays the timeout for the PPPoE session, in seconds.
DS / US VC Profile This shows which VC profile this channel uses for downstream traffic shaping.
The VC profile for upstream policing also displays if the channel is configured to
