Encapsulation
Select the method of encapsulation used by your ISP from the drop-down list
box. Choices are
PPPoA
,
RFC 1483
,
ENET ENCAP
or
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
VC
or
LLC
.
By prior agreement, a protocol is assigned a specific virtual circuit, for
example, VC1 will carry IP. If you select VC, specify separate VPI and VCI
numbers for each protocol.
For LLC-based multiplexing or PPP encapsulation, one VC carries multiple
protocols with protocol identifying information being contained in each packet
header. In this case, only one set of VPI and VCI numbers need be specified for
all protocols.
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.
If you use
RFC 1483
, enter the IP address given by your ISP in the
IP
Address
field.
Subnet Mask
Enter a subnet mask in dotted decimal notation.
Refer to the appendices
to calculate a subnet mask If you are implementing
subnetting.
Gateway IP address
Specify a gateway IP address (supplied by your ISP).
Connection
Nailed-Up
Connection
Select
Nailed-Up Connection
when you want your connection up all the time.
The ZyXEL Device will try to bring up the connection automatically if it is
disconnected.
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 when you select
Connect on Demand
. The default setting is 0, which means the Internet
session will not timeout.
NAT
SUA only
is available only when you select
Routing
in the
Mode
field.
Select
SUA Only
if you have one public IP address and want to use NAT. Click
Edit
to go to the
Port Forwarding
screen to edit a server mapping set.
Otherwise, select
None
to disable NAT.

RIP Direction
Select the RIP direction from
None
,
Both

In Only
and
Out Only
.
RIP Version
Select the RIP version from
RIP-1
,
RIP-2B
and
RIP-2M
.
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)
or
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.

Traffic Redirect
Traffic redirect forwards traffic to a backup gateway when the ZyXEL Device cannot connect to the
Internet. An example is shown in the figure below.
Figure 29
Traffic Redirect Example
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.

The following network topology allows you to avoid triangle route security issues when the backup
gateway is connected to the LAN. Use IP alias to configure the LAN into two or three logical
networks with the ZyXEL Device itself as the gateway for each LAN network. Put the protected LAN
in one subnet (Subnet 1 in the following figure) and the backup gateway in another subnet (Subnet
2). Configure filters that allow packets from the protected LAN (Subnet 1) to the backup gateway
(Subnet 2).

The following table describes the labels in this screen.
Table 17
WAN Backup Setup
LABEL
DESCRIPTION
Backup Type
Select the method that the ZyXEL Device uses to check the DSL connection.
Select
DSL Link
to have the ZyXEL Device check if the connection to the DSLAM is
up. Select
ICMP
to have the ZyXEL Device periodically ping the IP addresses
configured in the
Check WAN IP Address
fields.
Check WAN IP
Address1-3
Configure this field to test your ZyXEL Device's WAN accessibility. Type the IP
address of a reliable nearby computer (for example, your ISP's DNS server
address).
Note: If you activate either traffic redirect or dial backup, you
must configure at least one IP address here.
When using a WAN backup connection, the ZyXEL Device periodically pings the
addresses configured here and uses the other WAN backup connection (if
configured) if there is no response.
Fail Tolerance
Type the number of times (2 recommended) that your ZyXEL Device may ping the
IP addresses configured in the
Check WAN IP Address
field without getting a
response before switching to a WAN backup connection (or a different WAN
backup connection).
