ATM VC Settings

change them. However, if you are instructed to change the
VPI
or
VCI
values, type in the values assigned for your
account. Leave the
PVC
and
Virtual Circuit
setting at the default (
Pcv0
and
Enabled
) values for now. This can be
used later if you are configuring multiple virtual circuits for your ADSL service. For more information on ATM
VC Settings, see the table on page 41 below.

Whenever a computer on the LAN attempts to access the Internet, the Router becomes the Internet gateway to the
computer. If you have an alternative route for Internet traffic you may disable this without effecting the Router’s
connection.
8.
NAT
should remain
Enabled
. If you disable NAT, you will not be able to use more than one computer for Internet
connections. NAT is enabled and disabled system-wide, therefore if you are using multiple virtual connections,

features configured in the
Firewall Configuration
and
Filters

Advanced
directory. See
the next chapter for more details on these windows.

have been give an IP address for you PPPoE/PPPoA connection, select the
Static IP
option from the
IP Control
pull-down menu. This menu can be used to configure the WAN port as an Unnumbered IP interface. (See table
below for Unnumbered IP).

Choose the desired
Connection Setting
. Select from: Always ON, Connection On Demand, or Manual. Most
users will want to choose the default connection setting, Always ON.

ATM
settings. If this is the first time you are setting up the ADSL connection
it is recommended that you leave the
Service Category
settings at the default values until you have established the
connection. See the table on page 40 for a description of the parameters available for ATM traffic shaping.
