Chapter 4 Wizard
Hold connection: This option can be configured when the
Dial as needed
option is not selected. It specifies the waiting
time for connecting your service provider before the
connection is terminated.
MTU: Maximum transmission unit of the DSL connection,
i.e., the maximum number of bytes of data packets
transmitted using TCP/IP. The greater the MTU value, the
larger the encapsulated package, which improves the
transmission rate in theory. However, the error rate during
the transmission may increase also.
Constrained MTU: Constrains all the TCP flow changes to
match the PPP MTU
LAN: LAN cannot be configuration unless the
PPP
Unnumbered
option is selected. This option specifies the
LAN groups to which data packets are sent.
Default gateway: Specifies the default gateway. The WAN is
connected to the Ethernet via the default gateway.
PPP Unnumbered: Enabling this option will allow the ISP to
specify the user a public IP address area. IP addresses in the
area are allocated to the LAN side statically. It is essentially
like a network bridge.
3. VLAN parameter description
Sharing: Provides three options
Disable: Disable the sharing of connection
Enable: Enables the sharing of connection
VLAN: Selects a VLAN. You can create VLANs,
configure VLAN ID and priority levels.
VLAN ID: All the members of the same VLAN have one
VLAN ID, forming a virtual LAN. Packets sent by each host
supporting the 802.1Q protocol contain this field to indicate
the VLAN of the host.
Priority level: Selects the VLAN priority from Level 0~7.
