  • Page 19: What Is Dsl

    P643 ADSL Router What is DSL? DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) technology enhances the data capacity of the existing twisted-pair wire that runs between the local telephone company switching offices and most homes and offices. While the wire itself can handle higher frequencies, the telephone switching equipment is designed to cut off signals above 4,000 Hz to filter noise off the voice line, but now everybody is searching for ways to get more bandwidth to improve access to the Web - hence DSL technologies.

  • Page 41: Tcp/Ip Parameters

    Prestige 643 ADSL Router Figure 3-1 LAN & WAN IPs TCP/IP Parameters 3.3.1 IP Address and Subnet Mask Like houses on a street that share a common street name, the machines on a LAN share one common network number. Where you obtain your network number depends on your particular situation. If the ISP or your network administrator assigns you a block of registered IP addresses, follow their instructions in selecting the IP addresses and the subnet mask.
  • Page 42: Private Ip Addresses

    Prestige 643 ADSL Router 3.3.2 Private IP Addresses Every machine on the Internet must have a unique address. If your networks are isolated from the Internet, e.g., only between your two branch offices, you can assign any IP addresses to the hosts without problems.
  • Page 43: Dhcp Configuration

    Prestige 643 ADSL Router 3.3.4 DHCP Configuration DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the individual clients (workstations) to obtain the TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a centralized DHCP server. The Prestige has built-in DHCP server capability, enabled by default, which means it can assign IP addresses, an IP default gateway and DNS servers to Windows 95, Windows NT and other systems that support the DHCP client.
  • Page 44: Ip Multicast

    Prestige 643 ADSL Router IP Multicast Traditionally, IP packets are transmitted in one of either two ways - Unicast (1 sender – 1 recipient) or Broadcast (1 sender – everybody on the network). Multicast is a third way to deliver IP packets to a group of hosts on the network - not everybody.

    Prestige 643 ADSL Router Glossary 10BaseT The 10-Mbps baseband Ethernet specification that uses two pairs of twisted-pair cabling (Category 3 or 5): one pair for transmitting data and the other for receiving data. ADSL Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line. A digital subscriber line (DSL) technology in which the transmission of data from server to client is much faster than the transmission from the client to the server.
  • Page 176 Prestige 643 ADSL Router Client A software program that is used to contact and obtain data from a Server software program on another computer. Each Client program is designed to work with one or more specific kinds of Server programs and each Server requires a specific kind of Client.
