Configuring the Layer 2 Interface (ADSL)

To configure an ADSL layer 2 interface:

1.

Select

Advanced Setup -> Layer2 Interface

and click Add.

Figure 13 ADSL Layer 2 Interface Configuration

2.

Enter the PVC’s identifier (VPI/VCI)

.

3.

Select the

“

DSL Link Type

”

–

Ethernet over ATM (RFC 2684) is typical.

4.

Select the

“

Encapsulation Mode

”

–

LLC/SNAP-BRIDGING is typical.

5.

Select the

“

Service Category

”

(upstream ATM shaping)

–

“

UBR Without PCR

”

(Unspecified

Bit Rate Without Peak Cell Rate) is typical.

6.

Select the

“

Connection Mode

”

–

Choose Default Mode for non-VLAN tagged traffic. Choose

VLAN MUX Mode if you intend to segment LAN traffic into separate VLAN tagged WAN

services.

7.

IMPORTANT

- Check

“

Enable Quality of Service

”

if you intend to support QoS classified

traffic through the WAN service.

8.

Click Apply/Save.

NOTE

Enabling QoS for routed IPTV service configurations will improve channel change

performance.

Configuring the Layer 2 Interface (PTM

–

Supported on ADSL and VDSL)

To configure a PTM layer 2 interface :

1.

Select

Advanced Setup -> Layer2 Interface -> PTM Interface

and click Add.

Figure 14 VDSL Layer 2 Interface Configuration

2.

Select the “DSL

Latency

” –

Path0 is typical.

3.

Select the “

PTM Priority

” –

Normal Priority is typical.

4.

Select the “

Connection Mode

” –

Default Mode is typical (when VLAN segmentation is not

required).

IMPORTANT

-

Check “Enable Quality of Service” if you intend to support QoS classified

traffic through the WAN service.

6.

Click Apply/Save.

NOTE

Enabling QoS for routed IPTV service configurations will improve channel change

performance.

NOTE

802.1P (priority) and 802.1Q (VLAN tag) values will be set at the time of WAN Service

creation as detailed in, “

Creating the WAN Service

.”

Configuring the Layer 2 Interface (VDSL/PTM with VLAN Tags)

In some applications it may be necessary to segment the PTM WAN interface into separate VLANs.

A common application for a VLAN segmented WAN interface is bridged IPTV as detailed in the

“

Bridged IPTV Configuration

”

section.

To configure the layer 2 PTM interface to support VLAN

tagged traffic select “VLAN MUX Mode” for “Connection Mode” in step 4 of the “

Configuring the

Layer 2 Interface (PTM

–

Supported on ADSL and VDSL)

” section.

Creating the WAN Service

WAN Services are created on top of previously created Layer 2 interfaces. To create a WAN service:

1.

Select

Advanced Setup -> WAN Service

and click Add.

2.

Select a previously created layer 2 interface from the drop down list and click Next.

3.

Select the

“

WAN Service type

”

–

“

PPP over Ethernet

”

or

“

IP over Ethernet

”

are appropriate

choices for routed WAN services. Bridged WAN services will be covered later in the

“

Bridged

IPTV Configuration

”

section.

Figure 15 WAN Service Configuration (With or Without VLAN Tagging Support)

NOTE

If VLAN tagging support is desired, set the 802.1p and 802.1q values appropriately.

802.1P: 0 is lowest priority, 7 is highest priority, -1 is unused

802.1Q: -1 indicates no VLAN tagging

NOTE

The SR-350N/NE and SR-500N/NE gateways support mixed VLAN tagged/untagged

traffic on the same WAN interface. Set the untagged WAN connection’s VLAN ID to

-1.
