ROUTER OVERVIEW
The ATLAS router uses the integral 10BaseT Ethernet port to transmit local area
network (LAN) traffic over the wide area network (WAN) to a remote LAN. By
integrating the router into the network access device, you benefit from the cost
savings of not requiring an external router. Figure 1-1 and Figure 1-2 illustrate a
conversion from an application with external routers to one using integral routers
within ADTRAN products.
