4.3.1.1.2 New Connection - PPPoA Connection Setup
PPPoA:
When
PPPoA
mode is selected, the following screen will pop-up. Point-to-Point Protocol ( PPP ) is a
method of establishing a network connection between network hosts. PPPoA, also known as RFC 2346,
adapts PPP to work over ATM cells for ADSL connections.
±
Name:
Enter the PPPoA connection name. The name must be unique and must not contain
spaces and must not begin with a number.
±
Type:
Connection Type : PPPoA.
±
Options:
Click to enable
“NAT”
and/or
“Firewall”
functionality. Default is
“Enable”
.
±
PPP Settings:
;
Username:
Your ISP Account ID. Check your ISP for details.
;
Password:
Your ISP Account Password. Check your ISP for details.
;
Idle Timeout:
The Idle Timeout allows you to set the specific period of time, in seconds, to
disconnect from the ISP if the link has no activity detected.
;
Keep Alive:
When the On-Demand option is not enabled, this value specifies the time to
wait without being connected to your provider before terminating the connection. To ensure
that the link is always active, enter 0 in this field.
;
Authentication:
The different types of available authentications are:
z
Auto:
When auto is selected, PAP mode will run by default. However, if PAP fails,
then will run as the secondary protocol. This is the default setting.
z
PAP:
Password Authentication Procedure. Authentication is done through username
and password.
z
CHAP:
Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol. Typically more secure than
PAP, CHAP uses username and password in combination with a randomly generated
challenge string which has to be authenticated using a one-way hashing function.

;
MTU:
Maximum Transmission Unit. The largest size packet that can be sent by the modem.
If the network stack of any packet is larger than the MTU value, then the packet will be
fragmented before the transmission. This can be set from a minimum 128 to maximum 1500.
;
On Demand:
If enable On Demand mode, the connection will be dropped if no activity is
detected after the specified Idle Timeout value.
;
Default Gateway:
Check box to make this the default connection.
;
Debug:
Click to enable the Debug function. The complete debugging information will show
and listed in the System Log file.
;
PPP Unnumbered:
Click to enable PPP Unnumbered function then select LAN Group from
the LAN dropdown manual.
±
PVC Settings:
;
VPI:
Virtual Path Identifier is a virtual path used for cell routing that is identified by an eight bit
field in the ATM cell header. The VPI field specifies this eight bit identifier for routing.
;
VCI:
A Virtual Channel Identifier is a virtual channel that is identified by a unique numerical
tag that is defined by a 16-bit field in the ATM cell header. The purpose of the virtual channel
is to identify where the cell should travel. The VCI field specifies this 16 bit numerical tag that
determines the destination.
;
QoS:
Select the Quality of Service (QoS) type. If in doubt leave as default.
;
PCR:
Peak Cell Rate. This is an ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) term to describe the
rate cells per second that the source device may never exceed. Available only when VBR
QoS is chosen.
;
SCR:
Security Cell Rate. This is an ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) term to describe the
security cell transmitted per second.
;
MBS:
Maximum Burst Size. A term used in ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) to specify
the maximum number of cells which can be transmitted at the contracted PCR (Peak Cell
Rate). Available only when VBR QoS is chosen.
;
CDVT:
Cell Delay Variation Time. The Cell Delay Variation is a term used in ATM
(Asynchronous Transfer Mode) to describe the time difference that is acceptable between
cells being presented at the receiving host. Available only when VBR QoS is chosen.
;
Auto PVC:
Click to enable Auto PVC features. Auto PVC allows detection of virtual channels
via the built-in mechanism for communicating ATM Layer information from DSLAM to the
WL-8064ARM Wireless ADSL2/2+ Router.

4.3.1.1.3 New Connection - Static Connection Setup
Static:
When Static mode is selected, the following screen will pop-up. Most Internet users are provided with
a dynamic IP address by their ISP for each session, however certain situations call for a Static IP address.
This is typically when you want to host a website, or use VoIP or video-conferencing applications where other
users must regularly connect to your computer. Static IP numbers are generally made available by ISPs for
these purposes for an additional fee.
±
Name:
Enter the Static connection name. The name must be unique and must not contain spaces
and must not begin with a number.
±
Type:
Connection Type : Static.
±
Sharing:
Select
“Disable”
,
“Enable”
or
“VLAN”
sharing. Default setting is
“Disable”
.
±
Options:
Click to enable
“NAT”
and/or
“Firewall”
functionality. Default is
“Enable”
.
±
VLAN ID:
If
“VLAN”
is selected, manually enter the
“VLAN ID”
and select
“Priority Bits”
from
the drop down manual.
±
Static Settings:
;
Encapsulation:
Select the encapsulation type (LLC or VC) according to the information
provided by the ISP.
;
IP Address:
Enter the IP Address provided by your ISP.
;
Mask:
Enter the Subnet mask specified by your ISP.
;
Default Gateway:
Enter the Default Gateway as specified by the ISP.
;
DNS:
Up to three Domain Name Server (DNS) addresses can also be specified.
;
Mode:
For static configuration, you can also select a bridge connection or a routed
connection. Since a Static IP address is typically used to host WEB servers, Bridged
connection is usual however Routed is provided also. Check with ISP for confirmation.
