Permanent VC (Virtual Circuit) Settings
(X5v only)
You rarely need to configure more than one PVC– the one that
connects you to your service provider. However, you might want
to set up one PVC for your provider and another for your
corporate intranet, for example. Or you might want to add a PVC
for a service such as video, or to connect to a Virtual Private
Network (VPN) if available in your area. Consult your service
provider.
