Integrated 4-Port Ethernet Hub
The built-in 4-port Ethernet 10Base-T hub saves you the cost and the clutter of an external hub.
Dial-On-Demand
The Dial-On-Demand feature allows the Prestige to automatically place a call to a remote
gateway based on the triggering packet’s destination without user intervention.
PPP Multilink
The Prestige can bundle multiple links in a single connection using PPP Multilink Protocol (MP).
The number of links can be either statically configured or dynamically managed based on traffic
demand.
Bandwidth-On-Demand
The Prestige dynamically allocates bandwidth by dialing and dropping connections according to
traffic demand.
Full Network Management
Your Prestige supports SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) and allows menu-driven
network management via the console port or a telnet connection. Your Prestige is also equipped
with a Call Detail Record to help to analyze and manage your telephone bill.
RADIUS Support
RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) is the most popular protocol for user
authentication on dial-up lines. RADIUS support allows you to use an external server for
unlimited number of users and the ease of centralized management.
