Ethernet Port Note: To assign all Ethernet ports to a service, you must first
disable the remote nodes of the services you do not want to
use. Select
No in the Active field to do this.
If you select Middleware , VoIP or Home Gateway from the Application field,
you can choose which Ethernet port(s) you want assign to an application.
Video and IGMP use the same ports assigned to use the Middleware
application.
Data applications automatically use the port(s) that you have NOT selected to
use with Middleware , VoIP or Home Gateway applications.
Login Information (PPPoA and PPPoE encapsulation only)
Service Name (PPPoE only) Type the name of your PPPoE service here.
User Name Enter the user name exactly as your ISP assigned. If assigned a name in the
form user@domain where domain identifies a service name, then enter both
components exactly as given.
Password Enter the password associated with the user name above.
IP Address This option is available if you select Routing in the Mode field.
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
Obtain an IP Address Automatically if you have a dynamic IP address;
otherwise select Static IP Address and type your ISP assigned IP address in
the IP Address field below.
Connection
(PPPoA and PPPoE
encapsulation only)
The schedule rule(s) in SMT menu 26 have priority over your Connection
settings.
Nailed-Up
Connection
Select Nailed-Up Connection when you want your connection up all the time.
The Prestige will try to bring up the connection automatically if it is disconnected.
Connect on Demand Select Connect on Demand when you don't want the connection up all the time
and specify an idle time-out in the Max Idle Timeout field.
Max Idle Timeout Specify an idle time-out in the Max Idle Timeout field when you select Connect
on Demand . The default setting is 0, which means the Internet session will not
timeout.
PPPoE Passthrough
(PPPoE
encapsulation only)
This field is available when you select PPPoE encapsulation.
In addition to the Prestige's built-in PPPoE client, you can enable PPPoE pass
through to allow up to ten hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE client software on their
computers to connect to the ISP via the Prestige. Each host can have a separate
account and a public WAN IP address.
PPPoE pass through is an alternative to NAT for application where NAT is not
appropriate.
Disable PPPoE pass through if you do not need to allow hosts on the LAN to use
PPPoE client software on their computers to connect to the ISP.
Subnet Mask
(ENET ENCAP
encapsulation only)
Enter a subnet mask in dotted decimal notation.
Refer to the appendices
to calculate a subnet mask If you are implementing
subnetting.
