Table 18-1 IPoA

This field displays the name the Prestige uses to identify the IPoA interface
This field displays the interface that the IP firewall is effective on.
A public interface connects to the Internet. A private interface connects to your
LAN, such as the Ethernet interface. The term DMZ (De-Militarized Zone), in
Internet networking terms, refers to computers that are available for both public
and in-network accesses (such as a company's public web server).
This field displays Yes if the IPoA interface is of type 1577. This means that one
IPOA interface can have multiple VC mappings.
IPoA interfaces are defined in software, and then associated with lower-level
software and hardware structures (at the lowest level, they are associated with a
physical port – the WAN port). This field should reflect an interface name defined in
the next lower level of software over which the IPoA interface will operate. This will
be an ATM VCC interface, such as aal5-0, as described in the ATM VCC chapter.
This field displays the IP address of the remote computer that the Prestige is
connected to via the WAN connection.
The two fields display the IP address and network mask you want to assign to the
interface.
This field displays the IP address of the gateway for this interface.
A green or red dot will display to indicate that the interface is currently enabled or
disabled, respectively. You cannot manually enable or disable the interface; a
disabled interface may indicate a problem with the DSL connection.
