Chapter 2 H A P T E R PERATION 2.1 Introduction The following section describes the ADSL devices, their Ethernet and USB ports transmission, ATM and ADSL transmission as well as Security and System Management.
VPN capabilities for reduced cost of remote access communications. The AT-AR240E and the AT-AR250E can be configured and managed locally or remotely via a PC connected to the remote unit, or using the Command Line Interface (CLI) through a Telnet session, or through a Windows-based configuration tool.
Chapter 2 2 A switching function - allows the device to accept a packet from one protocol and forward it to a second protocol. When routing, the device accesses routing address tables to determine the best path for each packet to take. Routing tables can either be seeded as a static path or built dynamically from broadcast packet information.
Chapter 2 2.5 Static Routing The ADSL devices support IP Static Routing. With Static Routing, a Network Administrator makes specific LAN IP addresses available for WAN access. The easiest form of routing is establishing predefined routes through a network. A router that has been programmed for static routing forwards packets out of predetermined ports.
Chapter 2 2.7 Point-to-Point Protocol The ADSL devices support PPP over ATM. PPP is a WAN protocol transmitting multi-protocol data grams over serial links. PPP addresses are: • Standardized Internet encapsulation of IP over point-to-point links • Used in assignment and management of IP address •...
Chapter 2 2.8 Security The ADSL devices include security features such as Password Protection, User Authentication, Password Authentication and Protocol/Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (PAP/CHAP) to prevent unauthorized or inadvertent access to the router through the Internet. PAP/CHAP must be enabled by both ends of the link. The following sequence describes how authentication occurs: PAP verifies passwords between the ADSL devices using a two-way handshake.
Chapter 2 2.9 PC Setup for Telnet Connect any of the ADSL device’s Ethernet ports with the provided Ethernet cable (yellow) to the PC’s NIC card. The user needs to set his PC IP address to be of the same subnet as the device. For Example: The default IP address of the device is 10.0.0.1.
Chapter 2 2.10 USB Port Setup The Rear panel of the device also includes an USB port marked “USB” for direct PC connection. Connect the ADSL device’s USB port with the provided USB cable (grey) to the PC’s USB port. Load the Driver provided on to the PC to simulate Ethernet connections.
Chapter 2 2.11 ADSL Transmission The ADSL transmission is based on ITU G.dmt, UAWG, G.lite and ANSI T1.413 standard DMT line codes. The device’s DMT line rate is up to 8 Mbps downstream and up to 1 Mbps upstream. The DMT transceiver is rate adaptive and capable of providing faster rates over shorter distances and slower rates over longer distances.
