The Netopia D-Series DSL DSU can be used in either of two ways:
■
as an intelligent Ethernet filtering bridge for DSL connections, or
■
as a Digital Ser vice Unit
When the appropriate cables are connected, it senses the connection type (Frame Relay or ATM FUNI) and
automatically configures itself for use as a DSU or a DSL to Ethernet bridge.
See the following sections for suggestions on how to connect the Netopia D-Series to different types of
networks.
