3.1 Brief Guide of PPAP-200
PPAP-200 is a Communication Appliance computing board based on Intel 815E chipset
technology. PPAP-200 has three on-board LAN ports to serve communication appliances, such
as Firewall, which needs three Ethernet ports to connect external network (internet),
demilitarized zone and internal network. Different I/O management policies can be applied
respectively to individual network to achieve the highest security level. One built-in PCI slot
permits further expansion for WAN connection, backup connection or even customized function
card. The target market segment is communication appliance including Virtual Private Network,
Load Balancing, Quality of Service, Intrusion Detection, Virus Detection, Firewall and Voice
Over IP.
This PPAP-200 system board is eligible with Intel® FC-PGA Celeron® and Intel® FC-PGA
Pentium® III processors, and 144-pin SODIMM up to 256MB DRAM. The enhanced on-board
PCI IDE interface supports 2 drives up to PIO mode 4 timing and Ultra DMA/100 synchronous
mode feature. The on-board super I/O chipset integrates two serial ports driven by two high
performance 16C550-compatible UARTs to provide 16-byte send/receive FIFOs. Besides, the
two Universal Serial Bus ports provide high-speed data communication between peripherals and
PC.
The on-board flash ROM is used to make the BIOS update easier. An AC/DC adaptor power
input jack is provided for AT mode operation. The high precision Real Time Clock/Calendar is
built to support Y2K for accurate scheduling and storing configuration information. All of these
features make PPAP-200 excellent in stand-alone applications.
If any of these items is damaged or missing, please contact your vendor and save all packing
