    Prestige 310 Broadband Sharing Gateway 7.2.4 Generic Filter Rule This section shows you how to configure a generic filter rule. The purpose of generic rules is to allow you to filter non-IP packets. For IP, it is generally easier to use the IP rules directly. For generic rules, the Prestige treats a packet as a byte stream as opposed to an IP or IPX packet.

    Prestige 310 Broadband Sharing Gateway Appendix A: PPTP What is PPTP? PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol) is a Microsoft proprietary protocol (RFC 2637 for PPTP is informational only) to tunnel PPP frames. How can we transport PPP frames from a PC to a broadband modem over Ethernet? A solution is to build PPTP into the ANT (ADSL Network Termination) where PPTP is used only over the short haul between the PC and the modem over Ethernet.
  • Page 146: Control & Ppp Connections

    Prestige 310 Broadband Sharing Gateway Microsoft includes PPTP as a part of the Windows OS. In Microsoft’s implementation, the PC, and hence the Prestige, is the PNS that requests the PAC (the ANT) to place an outgoing call over AAL5 to an RFC 2364 server.
  • Page 147: Appendix B: Pppoe

    PPPoE in Action An ADSL modem bridges a PPP session over Ethernet (PPP over Ethernet, RFC 2516) from your PC to an ATM PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit) which connects to a xDSL Access Concentrator where the PPP session terminates (see the next figure). One PVC can support any number of PPP sessions from your LAN. PPPoE provides access control and billing functionality in a manner similar to dial-up services using PPP.
  • Page 148 Prestige 310 Broadband Sharing Gateway With PPPoE, the VC (Virtual Circuit) is equivalent to the dial-up connection and is between the modem and the AC, as opposed to all the way to the ISP. However, the PPP negotiation is between the PC and the ISP. Prestige as a PPPoE Client When using the Prestige as a PPPoE client, the PCs on the LAN see only Ethernet and are not aware of PPPoE.
