Service Name
Type the PPPoE service name provided to you. PPPoE uses a service name to
identify and reach the PPPoE server.
User Name
Type the user name given to you by your ISP.
Password
Type the password associated with the User Name above.

Password
Type your password again to make sure that you have entered it correctly.
Nailed-Up
Connection
Select Nailed-Up Connection if you do not want the connection to time out.
Idle Timeout
This value specifies the time in seconds that elapses before the router
automatically disconnects from the PPPoE server.
Authentication
Type
Use the drop-down list box to select an authentication protocol for outgoing calls.
Options are:
CHAP/PAP - Your Vantage CNM accepts either CHAP or PAP when requested by
this remote node.
CHAP - Your Vantage CNM accepts CHAP only.
PAP - Your Vantage CNM accepts PAP only.
WAN:IP
WAN IP
Address
Assignment
Select Get automatically from ISP If your ISP did not assign you a fixed IP
address. This is the default selection.
Select Use fixed IP address If the ISP assigned a fixed IP address.
My WAN IP
Address
Enter your WAN IP address in this field if you selected Use Fixed IP Address.
Private
This parameter determines if the device will include the route to this remote node in
its RIP broadcasts. If set to Yes, this route is kept private and not included in RIP
broadcast. If No, the route to this remote node will be propagated to other hosts
through RIP broadcasts.
Advanced Setup
RIP Direction
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows a router to exchange routing information
with other routers. The RIP Direction field controls the sending and receiving of
RIP packets.
Choose Both, None, In Only or Out Only.
When set to Both or Out Only, the device will broadcast its routing table
periodically.
When set to Both or In Only, the device will incorporate RIP information that it
receives.
When set to None, the device will not send any RIP packets and will ignore any RIP
packets received.
By default, RIP Direction is set to Both.
RIP Version
The RIP Version field controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP
packets that the device sends (it recognizes both formats when receiving).
Choose RIP-1, RIP-2B or RIP-2M.
RIP-1 is universally supported; but RIP-2 carries more information. RIP-1 is
probably adequate for most networks, unless you have an unusual network
topology. Both RIP-2B and RIP-2M sends the routing data in RIP-2 format; the
difference being that RIP-2B uses subnet broadcasting while RIP-2M uses
multicasting. Multicasting can reduce the load on non-router machines since they
generally do not listen to the RIP multicast address and so will not receive the RIP
packets. However, if one router uses multicasting, then all routers on your network
must use multicasting, also. By default, the RIP Version field is set to RIP-1.
