25.2.2 PPPoE Encapsulation
The Prestige supports PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet). You can only use PPPoE encapsulation
when you’re using the Prestige with a DSL modem as the WAN device. If you change the Encapsulation to
PPPoE, then you will see the next screen. Please see the appendix for more information on PPPoE.

Outgoing Authentication Protocol
Generally speaking, you should employ the strongest authentication protocol possible, for obvious reasons.
However, some vendor’s implementation includes a specific authentication protocol in the user profile. It
will disconnect if the negotiated protocol is different from that in the user profile, even when the negotiated
protocol is stronger than specified. If you encounter a case where the peer disconnects right after a successful
authentication, please make sure that you specify the correct authentication protocol when connecting to such
an implementation.
Nailed-Up Connection
A nailed-up connection is a dial-up line where the connection is always up regardless of traffic demand. The
Prestige does two things when you specify a nailed-up connection. The first is that idle timeout is disabled.
