Choose the index number you wish to modify or delete.

Default for Index 1 = PPPoA Vcmux.

PPP Connections must configure:

Login User Name

Login Password

Confirm Password

Type the same password to confirm it.

Authentication

Protocol used to confirm the identity of the subscriber. Choose chap
(default) or pap form the drop-down menu.

Connect on Demand

Select enabled or disabled. When this function is enabled the router will
connect any workstation on your LAN to the Internet upon request. If this
function is disabled, it will be necessary to access this menu and hit the
Connect button each time you want to establish a connection to the
WAN or the Internet.

Idle Time

A value of 0 means that the PPP connection will remain connected. If
your network account is billed according to the amount of time the
Router is actually connected to the Internet, enter an appropriate Idle
Time value (in seconds). This will disconnect the Router after the WAN
connection has been idle for the amount of time specified. The default
value = 0.

IPoA Connections must configure:

IP Unnumbered

This is enabled by default and therefore no IP settings need to be
entered for the account. If this is disabled, (global) IP settings must be
configured for the WAN interface.

IP Address

If IP Unnumbered is disabled, type in the WAN IP address for the
account.

Subnet Mask

If IP Unnumbered is disabled, type in the subnet mask for the WAN
interface.

Table 5 - 1. WAN Connection Configuration

Connect / Disconnect

If you have enabled the Connect on Demand feature, the Router will begin to negotiate the WAN connection
upon restarting. If the Connect on Demand feature has been disabled, click the Connect button to initiate the
connection via the ADSL WAN interface. The process will take a few seconds. To end the WAN connection,
click on the Disconnect button.
