Dynamic IP Parameters
Description
PVC
The Router supports using up to eight multiple virtual connections. This
window allows the user to configure WAN settings for all the available
connections (see instructions below on how to set up Multiple Virtual
Connections). Use the PVC drop-down menu to select the connection (
Pvc0
to
Pvc7) you want to configure. Since most users will use only a single
connection, the default setting
Pvc0 can be used for any changes made to
the WAN settings.
VPI
The Virtual Path Identifier is used with the VCI to define a dedicated circuit
on the ATM network portion of the connection to the Internet and WAN.
Most users will not need to change this setting.
VCI
The Virtual Channel Identifier is used with the VPI to define a dedicated
circuit on the ATM network portion of the connection to the Internet and
WAN. Most users will not need to change this setting.
Virtual Circuit
As with the PVC setting, this is mainly for use by clients who are
configuring the Router for multiple virtual connections. Use this to enable
or disable the PVC you are currently configuring. By default, the Pvc0 is
Enabled and the remaining PVCs are disabled.
WAN Setting
Use the drop-down menu to select
Dynamic IP Address. The remaining
options are
Bridge Mode, Static IP Address, and PPPoE/PPPoA.
Connection Type
This specifies the connection type and encapsulation method used for your
Dynamic IP Address connection. The options available are
1483 Bridged IP
LLC or 1483 Bridged IP VC-Mux.
Cloned MAC Address
This is not always necessary, but may be required for some ISPs. Type in
the MAC address of your computer’s Ethernet adapter in the Cloned MAC
Address field and click the Clone MAC Address button. This will copy the
information to a file used by the Router to present to the ISP’s server used
for DHCP. Some ISPs record the unique MAC address of your computer’s
Ethernet adapter when you first access their network. If you want to later
replace the cloned MAC address with the factory default setting, type in all
zeros - 0:0:0:0:0:0 - and click the Clone MAC Address button.
Cloned MAC Address
To clone the MAC address of your computer’s Ethernet adapter, type in the
MAC address in the Cloned MAC Address field and then click this Clone
MAC Address button.
MTU
The Maximum Transmission Unit size may be changed if you want to
optimize efficiency for uploading data through the WAN interface. The
default setting (1400 bytes) should be suitable for most users. Some user
may want to adjust the setting to optimize performance for wireless traffic
or when low latency is desired (such as with Internet gaming). It is highly
recommended that the user research how adjusting the MTU may affect
network traffic for better or worse.
PPPoE PassThrough
This feature enables the Router to allow a “dial-up” or separate bridged PPP
connection to an individual PC. In this instance the Router will serve as a
bridge.
NAT
Network Address Translation may be enabled or disabled with the pull-
down menu. Keep in mind that disabling NAT allows only a single computer
to be used for Internet access through the Router. NAT is enabled and
