This section describes how to configure an IPoA (Internet
Protocol-over-ATM) interface on the ADSL Barricade.

An IPoA interface can be used to exchange IP packets over the
ATM network, without using an underlying Ethernet over ATM
(EOA) connection. Typically, this type of interface is used only
in product development and test environments, to eliminate
unneeded variables when evaluating IP layer processing.

Viewing Your IPoA Interface Setup

To configure an IPoA interface, log into Configuration Manager,
click the [WAN] tab, and then click [IPoA] in the task bar. The
[IP over ATM (IPoA) Configuration] page appears, as shown in
Figure 42.

The IPoA table contains a row for each EOA interface currently
defined on the device. The table may initially contain no entries.
