Mode

Select

Routing

(default) from the drop-down list box if your ISP gives you one IP

address only and you want multiple computers to share an Internet account.

Select

Bridge

when your ISP provides you more than one IP address and you

want the connected computers to get individual IP address from ISP’s DHCP

server directly. If you select

Bridge

, you cannot use Firewall, DHCP server and

NAT on the ZyXEL Device.

Encapsulation

Select the method of encapsulation used by your ISP from the drop-down list

box. Choices vary depending on the mode you select in the

Mode

field.

If you select

Bridge

in the

Mode

field, select either

PPPoA

If you select

Routing

in the

Mode

field, select

PPPoA

PPPoE

User Name

(PPPoA and PPPoE encapsulation only) Enter the user name exactly as your

ISP assigned. If assigned a name in the form user@domain

where domain

identifies a service name, then enter both components exactly as given.

Password

(PPPoA and PPPoE encapsulation only) Enter the password associated with the

user name above.

Service Name

(PPPoE only) Type the name of your PPPoE service here.

Multiplexing

Select the method of multiplexing used by your ISP from the drop-down list.

Choices are

LLC

This field is not available if you set the WAN type to

Ethernet

Virtual Circuit ID

VPI (Virtual Path Identifier) and VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier) define a virtual

circuit. Refer to the appendix for more information.

These fields are not available if you set the WAN type to

Ethernet

VPI

The valid range for the VPI is 0 to 255. Enter the VPI assigned to you.

VCI

The valid range for the VCI is 32 to 65535 (0 to 31 is reserved for local

management of ATM traffic). Enter the VCI assigned to you.

IP Address

This option is available if you select

Routing

in the

Mode

field.

A static IP address is a fixed IP that your ISP gives you. A dynamic IP address is

not fixed; the ISP assigns you a different one each time you connect to the

Internet.

Select

Obtain an IP Address Automatically

if you have a dynamic IP address;

otherwise select

Static IP Address

and type your ISP assigned IP address in

the

IP Address

field below.

Subnet Mask

This option is available if you select

ENET ENCAP

in the

Encapsulation

field.

Enter a subnet mask in dotted decimal notation.

Gateway IP

address

This option is available if you select

ENET ENCAP

in the

Encapsulation

field.

Specify a gateway IP address (supplied by your ISP).

DNS Server

First DNS Server

Second DNS Server

Third DNS Server

Select

Obtained

From ISP

if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server

information (and the ZyXEL Device's WAN IP address) and you select

Obtain

an IP Address Automatically

Select

User-Defined

if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS

server's IP address in the field to the right. If you chose

User-Defined

, but leave

the IP address set to 0.0.0.0,

User-Defined

changes to

None

after you click

Apply

. If you set a second choice to

User-Defined

, and enter the same IP

address, the second

User-Defined

changes to

None

after you click

Apply

Select

None

if you do not want to configure DNS servers. You must have

another DNS server on your LAN, or else the computers must have their DNS

server addresses manually configured. If you do not configure a DNS server,

you must know the IP address of a computer in order to access it.

DESCRIPTION

RIP & Multicast

Setup

This section is not available when you configure the ZyXEL Device to be in

bridge mode.

RIP Direction

RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows a router to exchange routing

information with other routers. Use this field to control how much routing

information the ZyXEL Device sends and receives on the subnet.

Select the RIP direction from

None

Both

In Only

and

Out Only

RIP Version

This field is not configurable if you select

None

in the

RIP Direction

field.

Select the RIP version from

RIP-1

RIP-2B

and

RIP-2M

Multicast

Multicast packets are sent to a group of computers on the LAN and are an

alternative to unicast packets (packets sent to one computer) and broadcast

packets (packets sent to every computer).

Internet Group Multicast Protocol (IGMP) is a network-layer protocol used to

establish membership in a multicast group. The ZyXEL Device supports

IGMP-

IGMP-v2

and

IGMP-v3

. Select

None

to disable it.

ATM QoS

ATM QoS Type

Select

CBR

(Continuous Bit Rate) to specify fixed (always-on) bandwidth for

voice or data traffic. Select

UBR

(Unspecified Bit Rate) for applications that are

non-time sensitive, such as e-mail. Select

VBR-RT

(real-time Variable Bit Rate)

type for applications with bursty connections that require closely controlled delay

and delay variation. Select

VBR-nRT

(non real-time Variable Bit Rate) type for

connections that do not require closely controlled delay and delay variation.

Peak Cell Rate

Divide the DSL line rate (bps) by 424 (the size of an ATM cell) to find the Peak

Cell Rate (PCR). This is the maximum rate at which the sender can send cells.

Type the PCR here.

Sustain Cell

Rate

The Sustain Cell Rate (SCR) sets the average cell rate (long-term) that can be

transmitted. Type the SCR, which must be less than the PCR. Note that system

default is 0 cells/sec.

Maximum Burst

Size

Maximum Burst Size (MBS) refers to the maximum number of cells that can be

sent at the peak rate. Type the MBS, which is less than 65535.

PPPoE

Passthrough

(PPPoE

encapsulation only)

This field is available when you select

PPPoE

encapsulation.

In addition to the ZyXEL Device's built-in PPPoE client, you can enable PPPoE

pass through to allow up to ten hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE client software

on their computers to connect to the ISP via the ZyXEL Device. Each host can

have a separate account and a public WAN IP address.

PPPoE pass through is an alternative to NAT for application where NAT is not

appropriate.

Disable PPPoE pass through if you do not need to allow hosts on the LAN to use

PPPoE client software on their computers to connect to the ISP.

MTU

The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) defines the size of the largest packet

allowed on an interface or connection. Enter the MTU in this field.

For ENET ENCAP, the MTU value is 1500.

For PPPoE, the MTU value is 1492.

For PPPoA and RFC 1483, the MTU is 65535.
