[Encapsulation]

Dynamic IP:

Select this option if your ISP provides you an IP address automatically. This

option is typically used for Cable services. Please enter the Dynamic IP information

accordingly.

Static IP:

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.

45

[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.

Username

:

Enter your username for your PPPoE/PPPoA connection.

Password

:

Enter your password for your PPPoE/PPPoA connection

Encapsulation:

For both PPPoE/PPPoA connections, you need to specify the type of

Multiplexing, either LLC or VC mux.

Connection 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.

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.

46

[NAT]

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.

Default Router:

Select whether this PVC will be default router for internet data.

[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.

Note:

Every time you change one setting, you must click

SAVE

button once, and then

go to next setting’s change.

47

4.3.2

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.

[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.

Dynamic Route:

Select the Dynamic Route from

RIP1

,

RIP2-B

, and

RIP2-M

. Please refer

to

Internet

Æ

Dynamic

Route. The only difference is the interface.

Direction:

Select the RIP direction from

None

,

Both

,

In Only

and

Out Only

.

48

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

Internet

Æ

Multicast

. The only

difference is the interface.

[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. That device 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.

Starting IP address:

The starting IP address for the DHCP server’s IP assignment.

IP Pool Count:

The max user pool size.

Lease Time:

The length of time for the IP lease.

[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.

[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.
