New Connection; Pppoe Connection Setup - Paradyne 6212 User Manual

New Connection

A new connection is basically a virtual connection. Your router can support up to 8
different virtual connections. If you have multiple different virtual connections, you
may need to utilize the static and dynamic routing capabilities of the router to pass
data correctly.

PPPoE Connection Setup

PPPoE is defined in the Internet standard RFC 2516. It is a method of
encapsulating PPP packets over Ethernet. PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) is a
method of establishing a network session between network hosts. It usually
provides a mechanism of authenticating users.
