The Internet Setup dialog box displays the phone number the ProxyServer is going to dial to reach
your ISP, the protocol the ISP supports, MultiLink Point-to-Point Protocol (MLPPP) option, and if you
would link the ProxyServer to dial a telephone when you power on your unit.
The Dial Number field displays the phone number of the ISP you initially assigned during your initial
configuration. If you have the MLPPP option enabled in Advanced, then the ISP telephone number
has to be same for each WAN port connected to the ISP. If a WAN port is not being used for Internet
access, then the Dial Number field should be blank.
ProxyServer supports Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) and Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP) on its
WAN links. The majority of the time the ISP is going to support PPP. PPP supports two user
authentication protocols; Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) and Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol (CHAP). When you established your Internet account your ISP should have
indicated which protocol it supports.
Your user name and password are displayed in the PPP group for those WAN ports that are going to
be connected to the Internet. The user name and password were enterred in the Default WAN
Link(s) setup dialog box during the initial configuration. If a WAN port is not being used for Internet
access, then the User Name and Password fields will be blank. You can change your User Name
and Password in these fields for the selected WAN port. Remember that if you change one of your
user names or password and you have the MLPPP option enabled, you must change your user name
and password for each WAN port connected to the Internet.
Clicking the Advanced tab brings up the parameters that affect all of the WAN links.
The Message Printing Control group is used to flag specific items for generating messages on
various conditions, including Printing, Alarm, NCP (NetWare Core Protocol), and LCP (Link Control
