Configuring the ATM VCC
As your LAN computers access the Internet via the Neobit 1012VA,
data is exchanged with your ISP through a complex network of
telephone switches, Internet routers, servers, and other specialized
hardware. These various devices communicate using a common
language, or protocol, called
Asynchronous Transfer Mode
(ATM).
On the Wide Area Network (WAN) that connects you to your ISP,
the ATM protocol performs functions like those that the Ethernet
protocol performs on your LAN.
This chapter describes how to configure the ATM
virtual channel
connection
(VCC). The VCC properties define the path the Neobit
1012VAuses to communicate with your ISP over the ATM network.
Viewing Your ATM VC Setup
To view your current configuration, log into Configuration Manager,
click the WAN tab, and then click
ATM VCC
in the task bar. The ATM
VCC Configuration page displays, as shown in Figure 33.
