The first method allows multiplexing of multiple protocols over just one ATM virtual circuit (LLC-based multiplexing). The second method assumes that each individual protocol is carried over a separate ATM virtual circuit (VC-based multiplexing). Please refer to RFC 1483 for more information.
 35 The following table describes the labels in this screen. LABEL DESCRIPTION VPI  Enter the VPI here. VPI can range from 0 to 255. VCI  Enter the VCI here. VCI can range from 32 to 65535. Connection Type  Select your connection type from the dropdown list. Your ISP should provide the above information. Click on BACK to return to the previous screen, on NEXT to continue, or on EXIT to exit the wizard without saving.  5.3.6 Multiplexing Two conventions identify what protocols a virtual circuit (VC) is carrying. Be sure to use the multiplexing method your ISP requires.  (1) VC-Based Multiplexing In VC-based multiplexing, by prior mutual agreement, each protocol is assigned to a specific virtual circuit. For example, VC1 carries IP, etc. VC-based multiplexing may be dominant in environments where dynamic creation of large numbers of ATM VCs is fast and economical.  (2) LLC-Based Multiplexing In LLC-based multiplexing, one VC carries multiple protocols with protocol-identifying information contained in each packet header. While this method requires extra bandwidth and processing overhead, this method may be advantageous if it is not practical to have a separate VC for each carried protocol; for example, if charging heavily depends on the number of simultaneous VCs.  5.3.7 VPI and VCI Be sure to use the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI) numbers assigned to you. The valid range for the VPI is 0 to 255. The valid range for the VCI is 32 to 65535. 0 to 31 is reserved for local management of ATM traffic.

 376. Interface Setup                                     The physical connections determine whether the router ports are local area network (LAN) ports or wide area network (WAN) ports. There are two kinds of IP networks. The local, private kind is the LAN network; the global, public kind is the WAN network. The following illustration shows the relationship between the router and the two different networks.   A LAN is a shared communication system to which many computers are attached. A LAN is generally limited to the immediate area, usually the same building or floor of a building. A WAN is an outside connection to another network or to the Internet.    Click an Interface Setup link to set ATM VC values, ISP Encapsulation, configure multi- connection settings, and LAN configuration.  6.1 Internet The Internet screen allows you to set up how your router connects to the Internet. If you already ran the Quick Start wizard, the information you provided to the wizard should be entered into the fields already. After you finish the changes, click on the SAVE button to save your changes.
 38  6.1.1 ATM VC & QoS ATM settings are used to connect to your ISP. Your ISP provides VPI, VCI, settings to you. In this Device, you can totally setup 8 PVCs on different encapsulations if you apply 8 different virtual circuits from your ISP. You need to activate the VC to take effect. For PVCs management, you can use ATM QOS to setup each PVC traffic line’s priority. Virtual Circuit: Select the VC number you want to setup. VPI: Virtual Path Identifier. The valid range for the VPI is 0 to 255.   VCI: Virtual Channel Identifier. The valid range for the VCI is 1 to 65635 (0 to 31 is reserved for local management of ATM traffic).   ATM QoS: Select the Quality of Service types for this Virtual Circuit. The ATM QoS types include CBR(Constant Bit Rate), VBR(Variable Bit Rate) and UBR (Unspecified Bit Rate). These QoS types are all controlled by the parameters specified below, including PCR, SCR, and MBS. PCR: Peak Cell Rate (PCR) is the maximum rate at which the sender can send cells. This parameter may be lower (but not higher) than the maximum line speed. 1 ATM cell is 53 bytes (424 bits), so a maximum speed of 832 Kbps gives a maximum PCR of 1962 cells/sec. This rate is not guaranteed because it is dependent on the line speed. SCR: Sustained Cell Rate (SCR) is the mean cell rate of a bursty, on-off traffic source that can be sent at the peak rate, and a parameter for burst-type traffic. SCR may not be greater than the PCR; the system default is 0 cells/sec. MBS: Maximum Burst Size (MBS) is the maximum number of cells that can be sent at the PCR. After MBS is reached, cell rates fall below SCR until cell rate averages to the SCR again. At this
 39time, more cells (up to the MBS) can be sent at the PCR again. CBR is for connections that support constant rates of data transfer. The only parameter you need to worry about in CBR is PCR. UBR is for connections that have variable traffic. The only parameter you need to worry about in UBR is PCR. rtVBR is for connections that, while having variable traffic, require precise timing between traffic source and destination. PCR, SCR and MBS must all be set for rtVBR. nrtVBR is for connections that have variable traffic, do not require precise timing, but still require a set bandwidth availability. PCR, SCR and MBS must all be set for nrtVBR.  6.1.2 Encapsulation Select the encapsulation protocol your ISP uses. The following section will vary depending on which encapsulation protocol you select.   (1) Dynamic IP Address Select this option if your ISP provides you an IP address automatically. Please enter the Dynamic IP information accordingly.  The following table describes the labels in this screen. LABEL DESCRIPTION Encapsulation  Select your encapsulation type from the dropdown list. NAT  Select whether NAT is Enabled or Disabled.   Default Route  Select whether this PVC will be the default route for Internet data. TCP MTU Option  Enter TCP MTU Value here Dynamic Route  Select the RIP type and direction from the dropdown lists. Multicast  Select the multicast protocol you wish to use from the dropdown list.
 40(2) Static IP Address Select this option to set static IP information. You will need to enter in the encapsulation type (1483 Bridged IP LLC, 1483 Bridged IP VC-Mux, 1483 Routed IP LLC (IPoA), 1483 Routed IP VC-Mux), IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address provided to you by your ISP. Each IP address entered in the fields must be in the appropriate IP form, which is 4 IP octets separated by a dot (x.x.x.x). The Router will not accept the IP address if it is not in this format.  The following table describes the labels in this screen. LABEL DESCRIPTION Encapsulation  Select your encapsulation type from the dropdown list. Static IP Address  Enter the static IP Address here. IP Subnet Mask  Enter the IP Subnet Mask here. Gateway  Enter the Gateway address here. NAT  Select whether NAT is Enabled or Disabled. Default Route  Select whether this PVC will be the default route for Internet data. Dynamic Route  Select the RIP type and direction from the dropdown lists. Multicast  Select the multicast protocol you wish to use from the dropdown list.  (3) PPPoA / PPPoE Select this option if your ISP requires you to use a PPPoE connection. This option is typically used for DSL service. Select Dynamic PPPoE to obtain an IP address automatically for your PPPoE connection. Selection Static PPPoE to use static IP address for your PPPoE connection. Please enter the information accordingly.
 41 LABEL DESCRIPTION Username  Enter your username for your PPPoE/PPPoA connection. Password  Enter your password for your PPPoE/PPPoA connection. Encapsulation  Select your encapsulation type from the dropdown list. Bridge Interface  Select whether the Interface will be Activated or Deactivated. Connection  Select whether your connection is always on or if it connects on demand. If on demand, specify how many minutes the connection may be idle before it disconnects. TCP MSS Option  Enter the TCP MSS you wish to use here. Get IP Address  Choose whether the ROUTER obtains the IP address statically or dynamically. Static IP Address  Enter the static IP address here. Only if you chose Static above. IP Subnet Mask  Enter the IP subnet mask here. Only if you chose Static above. Gateway  Enter the gateway here. Only if you chose Static above. NAT  Select whether NAT is Enabled or Disabled. Default Route  Select whether this PVC will be the default route for Internet data. TCP MTU Option  Enter TCP MTU Value here. Dynamic Route  Select the RIP type and direction from the dropdown lists. Multicast  Select the multicast protocol you wish to use from the dropdown list.
 42Connection Setting: For PPPoE/PPPoA connection, you can select Always on or Connect on-demand. Connect on demand is dependent on the traffic. If there is no traffic (or Idle) for a pre-specified period of time, the connection will tear down automatically. And once there is traffic send or receive, the connection will be automatically on.   IP Address: For PPPoE/PPPoA connection, you need to specify the public IP address for this ADSL Router. The IP address can be either dynamically (via DHCP) or given IP address provide by your ISP. For Static IP, you need to specify the IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway IP address. NAT: Select this option to Activate/Deactivated the NAT (Network Address Translation) function for this VC. The NAT function can be activated or deactivated per PVC basis.  [Dynamic Route] RIP (Routing Information Protocol): Select this option to specify the RIP version, including RIP1, RIP2-B and RIP2-M. RIP2-B & RIP2-M are both sent in RIP-2 format, the difference is that RIP2-M using Multicast and RIP2-B using Broadcast format. RIP Direction: Select this option to specify the RIP direction. None is for disabling the RIP function.  Both means the ADSL Router will periodically send routing information and accept routing information then incorporate into routing table. IN only means the ADSL router will only accept but will not send RIP packet. OUT only means the ADSL router will only sent but will not accept RIP packet.  [Multicast] IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol): It is a session-layer protocol used to establish membership in a multicast group. The ADSL supports both IGMP version IGMP-v1 & IGMP-v2. Select None to disable it.   Your ISP should provide the above information. Note that you must enter the user name exactly as your ISP assigned it. If the assigned name is in the form of user@domain where domain identifies a service name, enter it exactly as given.  (4) Bridge Mode The modem can be configured to act as a bridging device between your LAN and your ISP. Bridges are devices that enable 2 or more networks to communicate as if they are 2 segments of the same physical LAN. Please set the Connection type.
 43The following table describes the labels in this screen. LABEL DESCRIPTION Encapsulation  Select your encapsulation type from the dropdown list.   6.2 LAN There are the IP settings of the LAN Interface for the device. These settings may be referred to as Private settings. You may change the LAN IP address if needed. The LAN IP address is provided to your internal network and cannot be seen on the Internet.     6.2.1 Router Local IP IP Address: Enter the IP address of your ADSL router in dotted decimal notation, for example, 192.168.1.1 (default setting). IP Subnet Mask: Your ADSL router will automatically calculate the subnet mask based on the IP address that you assign. Unless you are implementing sub netting, use the subnet mask computed by the ADSL router.
 44Dynamic Route: Select the Dynamic Route from RIP1, RIP2-B, and RIP2-M. Please refer to InternetÆ Dynamic Route. The only difference is the interface. IGMP Snoop: You can disabled and enabled IGMP Snoop function.  6.2.2 Explaining RIP Setup   Routing Information Protocol (RIP) allows a router to exchange routing information with   other routers. The RIP Direction field controls how RIP packets are allowed to enter and   leave the router. Selecting Both means the router will broadcast its routing table and   incorporate the RIP information that it receives. Selecting In Only means the router will   only accept RIP packets received, not send RIP packets. Selecting Out Only means the   router will only send RIP packets, not accept any RIP packets received. Selecting  None means the router will not send any RIP packets nor will it accept any RIP packets  received.   The Dynamic Route field controls the format and the broadcasting method of RIP   packets that the router sends. It recognizes both formats when receiving packets.    RIP-1 is universally supported, but RIP-2 carries more information. RIP-1 is adequate for   most networks. Only consider RIP-2 if your network has unusual topology.  Both RIP-2B and RIP-2M sends the routing data in RIP-2 format. RIP-2B uses subnet  broadcasting while RIP-2M uses multicasting.  Direction: Select the RIP direction from None, Both, In Only and Out Only. Multicast: IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol) is a session-layer protocol used to establish membership in a multicast group. The ADSL router supports both IGMP-v1 and IGMP-v2. Select None to disable it. Please refer to InternetÆ Multicast. The only difference is the interface.  6.2.3 DHCP Server The DHCP Server gives out IP addresses when a device is booting up and request an IP to be logged on to the network. It must be set as a DHCP client to obtain the IP address automatically. By default, the DHCP Server is enabled. The DHCP address pool contains the range of the IP address that will automatically be assigned to the client on the network.
 45 LABEL DESCRIPTION Starting IP Address  Enter the starting IP address you wish to use as the DHCP server's IP assignment. IP Pool Count  Enter the maximum user pool size you wish to allow. Lease Time  Enter the amount of time you wish to lease out a given IP address. DNS Relay  Select the DNS relay option you wish to use from the dropdown list. Primary DNS Server  Enter the primary DNS server IP address you wish to use. For user discovered DNS only. Secondary DNS Server  Enter the secondary DNS server IP address you wish to use. For user discovered DNS only.  6.2.4 DHCP Relay A DHCP relay is a computer that forwards DHCP data between computers that request IP addresses and the DHCP server that assigns the addresses. Each of the device’s interfaces can be configured as a DHCP relay. If it is enable, the DHCP requests from local PCs will forward to the DHCP server runs on WAN side. To have this function working properly, please run on router mode only, disable the DHCP server on the LAN port, and make sure the routing table has the correct routing entry.  DHCP Server IP for relay agent: The DHCP server IP Address runs on WAN side.
 466.2.5 DNS Relay The DNS Configuration allows the user to set the configuration of DNS.  DNS Rely Selection: If user wants to disable this feature, he just needs to set both Primary & Secondary DNS to 0.0.0.0. Using DNS relay, users can setup DNS server IP to 192.168.1.1 on their computer. If not, device will perform as NO DNS relay.  If you don’t want to use the DNS Relay option, set the DNS relay to “Use User   Discovered DNS Server Only” and set both Primary and Secondary DNS Servers to  “0.0.0.0”.
