Internet (WAN): Autodetect Encapsulation
Use Autodetect to discover the encapsulation type.
• If Stratix 5900 Device Manager software succeeds, it automatically
supplies the encapsulation type and other configuration parameters it
discovers.
• If Stratix 5900 Device Manager software is unable to detect the type of
encapsulation, you must specify the encapsulation and authentication
types by clicking User Specified.
IP Unnumbered Option Share an IP address that has already been assigned to another interface. Then,
choose the interface whose IP address you want the interface that you are
configuring to use. If you did not choose Enable PPPoE, this option is not
available.
Easy IP (IP Negotiated) The router obtains an IP address by PPP/IPCP address negotiation. If you did not
choose Enable PPPoE, this option is not available.
Authentication Type Check Box Check the box for the type of authentication used by your service provider. If you
do not know the type of service your provider uses, you can check both boxes: the
router attempts both types of authentication, and one attempt succeeds.
CHAP authentication is more secure than PAP authentication.
Username Given to you by your Internet service provider or network administrator and is
used as the username for CHAP and/or PAP authentication.
Password Enter the password exactly as given to you by your service provider. Passwords
are case sensitive. For example, the password ‘test’ is not the same as ‘Test’.
Confirm Password Reenter the same password that you entered in the previous box.
Refresh, Apply Changes, Discard
