Virtual Circuit ID:
VPI and VCI define a virtual circuit.
VPI: The valid range for the VPI is 0 to 255
VCI: The valid range for the VCI is 32 to 65535
ATM QoS Type:
Select
CBR
to specify fixed (always-on) bandwidth for voice or
data traffic. Select
UBR
for applications that are non-time sensitive, such as
e-mail. Select
VBR
for burst traffic and bandwidth sharing with other applications.
Cell Rate:
Cell rate configuration often helps eliminate traffic congestion that
slows transmission of real time data such as audio and video connections.
Peak Cell Rate: Divide the DSL line rate (bps) by 424 (the size of an ATM cell) to
find the Peak Cell Rate (PCR).
Sustain Cell Rate: The Sustain Cell Rate (SCR) sets the average cell rate
(long-term) that can be transmitted.
Maximum Burst Size: Maximum Burst Size (MBS) refers to the maximum number
of cells that can be sent at the peak rate.
Login Information:
PPPoA and PPPoE encapsulation only.
Service Name: Type the name of your PPPoE service here.
User Name: Enter the user name exactly as your ISP assigned.
Password: Enter the password provide by your ISP.
Connection:
The schedule rules have priority over your Connection settings.
Nailed-Up Connection: Select Nailed-Up Connection when you want your
connection up all the time.
Connect on Demand: Select Connect on Demand when you don't want the
connection up all the time and specify an idle time-out in the Max Idle Timeout
field.
Max Idle Timeout: Specify an idle time-out in the Max Idle Timeout field
TCP MSS Option:
This will increase the current MSS limit to the number
specified, hence the tweak test will report Max Packet Size as the specified
number plus 40.
4.2.4 NAT
The NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) is the translation of
the IP address of a host in a packet. The default setting is
Dynamic NAPT
. It
provides dynamic Network Address Translation capability between LAN and
