The Default Profile

If you are using RFC1483 data link encapsulation, the Default Profile screen controls whether or not the DSL
link will come up without an explicitly configured connection profile. (PPP datalink encapsulation does not
suppor t a default profile, and the corresponding menu item is unavailable.) See

“Connection Profiles” on

page 6-32

for more information.

You access the Default Profile screen from the Main Menu by selecting WAN Configuration and then selecting
Default Profile.

The Default Profile screen appears.

You can set Must Match a Defined Profile item to Yes or No (the default). This item controls whether or
not the DSL link will come up without an explicitly configured connection profile. If your ISP is ser ving you a
dynamic IP Address, you need not explicitly configure a connection profile, and the default behavior of the
router will be to connect automatically once it is powered on.
