encapsulation from the drop-down menu. Each Basic Setup screen and available features will differ
depending on what type of encapsulation you select.
• VC Settings. You will configure your Virtual Circuit (VC) settings in this section.
• Multiplexing: Select LLC or VC, depending on your ISP.
• QoS Type: Select from the drop-down menu: UBR (Unspecific Bit Rate) for applications that are non-time-
sensitive, such as e-mail; CBR (Continuous Bit Rate) to specify fixed bandwidth for voice or data traffic; or
VBR (Variable Bit Rate) for bursty traffic and bandwidth-sharing with other applications.
