 Local IP
and Remote IP:
During PPP session setup IP addresses are negotiated. Typically at the client
side, these fields are left empty. This forces the client to ask the server for
addresses. To setup the SpeedTouch™ as PPP server, you are able to supply
suitable values (according your network configuration).
 Primary DNS and Secondary DNS:
During PPP session setup the BRAS will normally provide the DNS server IP
addresses. Typically at the client side, these fields should therefore be left
empty.
In cases where the DNS server IP addresses are not provided by the BRAS, or
to setup the SpeedTouch™ as PPP server, you are able to supply suitable values
(according your network configuration).
