PPP Connections (RFC 2516 & RFC 2364)
For PPPoA or PPPoE connections, a verification process is required before the network connection can be
established. Use this section to record the information used for authentication.
Account Information (User Name and Password)
For PPP connections, a User Name and Password for the user account are needed to connect to the service
provider’s network.
ACCOUNT INFORMATION (PPP Connections Only)

Bridged Ethernet Connections (RFC 1483)
Using this method, the DSL-500 acts as a transparent bridge, and is invisible to other devices on both the WAN
and LAN side of the bridge. It is therefore necessary to provide some means of acquiring global IP settings for
your account.
All connections to the Internet require a unique global IP address. For bridged connections, the global IP settings
must reside in a TCP/IP enabled device on the LAN side of the bridge, such as a PC, server or firewall hardware.
The IP address can be assigned in a number of ways. Your network service provider will give you instructions
about any additional connection software or NIC configuration that may be required.
IPoA Connections (RFC 1577)
IP over ATM connections may require global IP settings for the device. Your service provider will give you IP
settings information if needed. Some IPoA connections function like peer-to-peer connections and therefore do
not require IP settings on the WAN interface.
PVC Settings
Some subscribers may be instructed to change the VPI and VCI values for the device. These numbers define a
unique route used on the ATM backbone of the WAN. If your service provider asks you to configure these
values for your network connection, follow the instructions in the
Connection Profile
section of Chapter 5.
