RIP Version

Select the RIP version from

RIP-1

Multicast

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

establish membership in a multicast group. The ZyXEL Device supports both IGMP

version 1 (

IGMP-v1

) and

IGMP-v2

. 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-nRT

(Variable Bit Rate-non Real Time)

VBR-RT

(Variable Bit Rate-Real Time) for bursty traffic and bandwidth sharing

with other applications.

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.

Chapter 4 WAN Setup

P-660R-F1 Series User’s Guide

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.

Zero

Configuration

This feature is not applicable/available when you configure the ZyXEL Device to

use a static WAN IP address or in bridge mode.

Select

Yes

to set the ZyXEL Device to automatically detect the Internet

connection settings (such as the VCI/VPI numbers and the encapsulation method)

from the ISP and make the necessary configuration changes.

Select

to disable this feature. You must manually configure the ZyXEL Device

for Internet access.

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.
