There are many configuration options for the Megabit Modem 500L from which you can select.
Select the following options are recommended for enhanced performance:

•

DHCP not selected to allow the user to manually enter an IP address to the PC

•

NAT to map the public IP addresses (proxy IP addresses) acquired from the service
provider to the PC IP address

The following matrix shows the recommended configuration:

The following is a recommended procedure for configuring the Megabit Modem 500L:

1

Complete the WAN configuration (

page 36

). It is optional to map a LAN user to each PPP

over ATM session at this time. You can perform this at a later time (see

Step 4

) after the

modem dynamically serves IP addresses to LAN users or you have manually assigned IP
addresses to LAN users.

2

On the EasySession page:

a

Select the session you want active then click

Enable

. The modem sets up the session

with the service provider. The

Up

radio button next to the session(s) will indicate that

the session was successfully set up.

b

When dynamically acquiring an IP address from the service provider, the session
receives the IP address at this time.

3

Set up the LAN side configuration (

page 39

).

4

Map the IP address for the PC to a session (

page 38

).
