Chapter 3: Configuration

PPP

Configures and displays Point to Point Protocol (PPP) interfaces. The PPP protocol is

commonly used between ISPs and their customers to identify and control various

communication properties.

EOA

Configures and displays RFC1483/Ethernet over ATM (EoA) interfaces. The EoA

protocol is commonly used to carry data between LANs that use the Ethernet

protocol and WANs that use the ATM protocol.

IPOA

Configures and displays IP over ATM (IPoA) interfaces. An IPoA interface can be used
to exchange IP packets over ATM network, without using an underlying EoA

connection.

Services

NAT

Configures Network Address Translation (NAT), a security protocol in which the

device translates the IP addresses of your LAN computers to new addresses before

sending data out on the Internet (refer to “NAT Configuration”).

RIP

Lists any interfaces on your device that use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) and
the version of the protocol used. Routers on your LAN communicate with one

another using the RIP (refer to “RIP Configuration”).

FireWall

services (DoS) attacks and other types of malicious accesses to your LAN (refer to

“Firewall Configuration”).

Configures IP filters enabling you to create rules that control the forwarding of

incoming and outgoing data between your LAN and the Internet and within your

LAN (refer to “IP Filter Configuration”).

user-friendly domain names that users type into their Web browsers to the

equivalent numerical IP addresses that are used for Internet routing.

prevent the ADSL Router from passing any data that uses a particular protocol (refer

to “To Block Specific Protocols”).

the software running on your ADSL Router. All system software is contained in a

single file, called an image (refer to “Image Upgrade”).

are caused by a variety of system events, including connection attempts, resets and

configuration changes (refer to “View System Alarms”).
