Transmission Options

The following section is always displayed on the Remote Profile setup window. By
selecting options on this chart, other fields are displayed or removed.

Protocol

This field displays three protocol options, IP, IPX and Other. Use the Mode, WAN Network
Updates
, and GRE Tunnel fields to determine how and if the listed protocols will be used. This
screen will change dramatically as different modes are selected.

Mode

This field works in conjunction with the Protocol field, above, and defines which protocol(s) the
Adit unit will use to send and receive data when communicating with this remote device.

<Route> - When used in conjunction with the LAN Network Updates (Local Profile window)
and WAN Network Updates setting (below), the <Route> values enable the Adit to use Carrier
Access’ network optimization feature, which ensures that only necessary data is transmitted
over the WAN connection. The Adit will initiate IP and IPX learning mode. With each of these
selections the Adit will initiate learning mode to gain knowledge of local and remote networks
and services. Once it knows of remote networks and services, it can advertise the information
on the local LAN on behalf of the remote networks and servers.
<Bridge> - will not prompt the Adit to initiate WAN bandwidth optimization. Note that the
unit will not advertise servers and networks.
<Blocked
> - if you do not wish to use the corresponding protocol.
<Optimize> - See <Route> above
