lower than
the maximum measured downstream speed of your Internet
connection.
You may try different rates in order to determine which one

Note
Traffic Shaper cannot control the number or type of packets it
receives from the Internet; it can only affect the rate of incoming
traffic by dropping inbound traffic less accurate than the shaping of
outbound traffic. It is therefore recommended to enable traffic
shaping for incoming traffic only if necessary.
For information on using Traffic Shaper, see
“Using Traffic Shaper”
on page 127.

Dial-Up PPP
You can connect the Nokia IP45 security platform to the Internet by using a dial-up connection.
The device can establish a PPP connection to an ISP by using an external modem connected to
an auxiliary port. The modem can be an analog modem or an ISDN terminal adapter.
You can use the following modems:
±
Analog modem 56 Kbps (DTE speed: up to 115200)
±
ISDN TA (using PPP) 64 Kbps (DTE speed: up to 230400)
±
ISDN TA (using MLPPP) 128 Kbps (DTE speed: up to 460800)
Configuring Dial-Up
You can configure the dial-up option using either the GUI or the command-line interface (CLI).
Using the GUI
The following sections provide details about how to configure dial-up connections on the Nokia
IP45 security platform by using the GUI:
External IP
If you selected PPTP, type the IP address of the PPTP client as
given by your ISP.
If you selected PPPoE, this field is optional, and you
need not enter this value unless specified by your ISP.
MTU
This field allows you to control the maximum transmission unit
size.
As a general recommendation you should leave this
field empty. To modify the default MTU value, it is recommended
that you consult with your ISP first and use MTU values between
1300 and 1500.
