Authentication
Method
The VDSL Router supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP (Challenge
Handshake Authentication Protocol). CHAP is more secure than PAP; however, PAP is
readily available on more platforms.
Use the drop-down list box to select an authentication protocol for outgoing calls.
Options are:
AUTO
- Your VDSL Router accepts either CHAP or PAP when requested by this remote
node.
PAP
- Your VDSL Router accepts PAP only.
CHAP
- Your VDSL Router accepts CHAP only.
MSCHAP
- Your VDSL Router accepts MSCHAP only. MS-CHAP is the Microsoft version
of the CHAP.
Enable NAT
Select this check box to activate NAT on this connection.
Enable Fullcone NAT
This field is available only when you select
Enable NAT
. Select this check box to
activate full cone NAT on this connection.
Dial on Demand
Select this check box to not keep the connection up all the time. Specify an idle time-
out in the
Inactivity Timeout
field.
Inactivity
Timeout
Specify an idle time-out when you select
Dial on Demand
. The default setting is 0,
which means the Internet session will not timeout.
PPP IP extension
Select this only if your service provider requires it. PPP IP extension extends the service
provider’s IP subnet to a single LAN computer.
•
It lets only one computer on the LAN connect to the WAN.
•
The public IP address from the ISP is forwarded through DHCP to the LAN computer
instead of being used on the WAN PPP interface.
•
It disables NAT and the firewall.
•
DHCP tells the LAN computer to use the gateway as the default gateway and DNS
server.
•
The VDSL Router bridges IP packets between the WAN and LAN ports except
packets destined for the VDSL Router’s LAN IP address.
Use Static IPv4
Address
Select this option if you have a fixed IPv4 address assigned by your ISP.
IPv4 Address
Enter the IPv4 address assigned by your ISP.
Use Static IPv6
Address
Select this option if you have a fixed IPv6 address assigned by your ISP.
IPv6 Address
Enter the IPv6 address assigned by your ISP.
Enable IPv6
Unnumbered Model
Select this to enable IPv6 processing on the interface without assigning an explicit IPv6
address to the interface.
Launch Dhcp6c for
Address
Assignment
Select this check box to obtain an IPv6 address from a DHCPv6 server.
The IP address assigned by a DHCPv6 server has priority over the IP address
automatically generated by the VDSL Router using the IPv6 prefix from an RA.
Enable PPP Debug
Mode
Select
this option to display PPP debugging messages on the console.

IPoE
This screen displays when you select
IP over Ethernet
in the
WAN Service Configuration
screen.
Bridge PPPoE
Frames Between
WAN and Local
Ports
Select this option to forward PPPoE packets from the WAN port to the LAN ports and
from the LAN ports to the WAN port.
In addition to the VDSL Router's built-in PPPoE client, you can select this to allow up to
ten hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE client software on their computers to connect to the
ISP via the VDSL Router. Each host can have a separate account and a public WAN IP
address.
This is an alternative to NAT for application where NAT is not appropriate.
Clear this if you do not need to allow hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE client software on
their computers to connect to the ISP.
This field is not available for a PPPoA connection.
Enable IGMP
Multicast Proxy
Select this check box to have the VDSL Router act as an IGMP proxy on this connection.
This allows the VDSL Router to get subscribing information and maintain a joined
member list for each multicast group. It can reduce multicast traffic significantly.
Enable MLD
Multicast Proxy
Select
Enable
to have the VDSL Router act as an MLD proxy on this connection.
This
allows the VDSL Router to get subscription information and maintain a joined member
list for each multicast group.
It can reduce multicast traffic significantly.

DESCRIPTION
Obtain an IP
address
automatically
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
this if you have a dynamic IP address.
Option 60 Vendor
ID
DHCP Option 60 identifies the vendor and functionality of the VDSL Router in DHCP
requests that the VDSL Router sends to a DHCP server when getting a WAN IP address.
Enter the Vendor Class Identifier (Option 60), such as the type of the hardware or
firmware.
Option 61 IAID
DHCP Option 61 identifies the VDSL Router in DHCP requests the VDSL Router sends to
a DHCP server when getting a WAN IP address. Enter the Identity Association Identifier
(IAID) of the VDSL Router. For example, the WAN connection index number.
Option 61 DUID
Enter the DHCP Unique Identifier (DUID) of the VDSL Router.
