Configure Connection 1 for PPPoA

PPP or Point-to-Point protocol is a standard method of establishing a network connection/session between
networked devices. Different forms of PPP include PPPoA and PPPoE (discussed below) involve an
authentication process that requires a username and password to gain access to the network. PPPoA (PPP over
ATM) as described in RFC 2364, is a method of using PPP on an ATM network. ATM is used for many types of
telecommunications services including ADSL.
To configure the WAN connection for PPPoA, perform the steps listed below. Some of the settings do not need
to be changed the first time the device is set up, but can be changed later if you choose.
