Select the ATM interface you want to use (usually atm-0).
Your system may be configured with more than one ATM
interface if you are using different types of services with
your ISP.

Operation
Mode

This setting enables or disables the ROUTER . When set to
“No”, the device cannot be used to provide Internet
connectivity for your network. Set it to “Enabled” now, if
necessary.

to communicate with your ADSL/Ethernet router. Contact
them to determine the appropriate setting.

VCI and VPI

These values are provided by your ISP and determine the
unique path your connection uses to communicate with
your ISP.

This setting enables or disables bridging between the
ROUTER and your ISP. Your ISPs may also refer to this as
“RFC 1483” or “Ethernet over ATM”.

Management Protocol, which some ISPs use to perform
remote configuration of your device.

enter the address and the associated subnet mask in the
boxes provided. (Note: in some configurations, the public
IP address should be entered on your PC rather than on
the ADSL/Ethernet router; check with your ISP.)

specified above will be used as the default route for your
LAN. Whenever, one of your LAN computers attempts to
