Network Connections

Possible network connections are divided into 3 basic modes as described below:

• Gateway can be assigned with a Public IP Address
• Gateway can be installed under the existing NAT
• Gateway can be assigned with a Public IP address and serve as an IP sharing router.

Gateway Assigned with a Public IP Address

The VoIP gateway will have a Public IP address for its Internet connection regardless of whether it is a
static IP address, DHCP (using a Cable Modem), or PPPoE (Dialup / ADSL).

The following diagram shows a typical network connection in which broadband devices, such as an ADSL
router or Cable modem, need to work in bridged mode so that the gateway is able to obtain a public IP
address either through PPPoE, DHCP or static IP.

network requirements.
