Selecting Ethernet encapsulation
Introduction
Layer-2 Ethernet connections are supported on ports configured for VDSL connections.
For these connections, you must configure parameters in the
connection
profile for
Ethernet encapsulation, and associate that profile with the VDSL port.
Other aspects of the
connection
profile including PPPOE, BIR, and VLAN operation are
documented in the Stinger IP Control Module Guide.
Ports configured for ADSL, ADSL2, or ADSL2+ connections support ATM at Layer 2,
but do not support layer-2 Ethernet. For information about configuring ATM connections
on ports configured for ADSL, ADSL2, or ADSL2+, see the Stinger ATM Configuration
Guide, and the Stinger IP Control Module Guide.
The encapsulation-type parameter
The encapsulation-protocol parameter in the connection profile sets the type of
encapsulation that will be used for the connection. If the connection will be used for a
VDSL port, the
ethernet setting must be applied, as shown below.
