ATM VC Configuration

When computers access the Internet using the Modem, data is exchanged with your network service provider or
ISP through a complex network of telephone switches, Internet routers, servers, and other specialized hardware.
These various devices communicate using a common language, or protocol, called Asynchronous Transfer Mode
(ATM). On the Wide Area Network (WAN) that connects you to your ISP, the ATM protocol performs
functions like those that the Ethernet protocol performs on your LAN.
This section describes how to configure the ATM virtual channel connection (VCC). The VCC properties define
the path the Modem uses to communicate with your ISP over the ATM network.
To view your current configuration, log into the Configuration Manager, and then click the ATM VCC button in
the Bridging folder. The ATM VCC Configuration page displays, as shown below:
