Protocol Support - ZyXEL Communications P-660H-61 User Manual

Dynamic DNS Support
With Dynamic DNS support, you can have a static hostname alias for a dynamic IP address, allowing
the host to be more easily accessible from various locations on the Internet. You must register for this
service with a Dynamic DNS service provider.
Multiple PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuits) Support
Your Prestige supports up to 8 PVC's.
ADSL Transmission Rate Standards
♦ Full-Rate (ANSI T1.413, Issue 2; G.dmt (G.992.1) with line rate support of up to 8 Mbps
downstream and 832 Kbps upstream.
♦ G.lite (G.992.2) with line rate support of up to 1.5Mbps downstream and 512Kbps upstream.
♦ Supports Multi-Mode standard (ANSI T1.413, Issue 2; G.dmt (G.992.1); G.lite (G992.2)).
♦ TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) network layer protocol.
♦ ATM Forum UNI 3.1/4.0 PVC.
♦ Supports up to 8 PVCs (UBR, CBR, VBR).
♦ Multiple Protocol over AAL5 (RFC 1483).
♦ PPP over AAL5 (RFC 2364).
♦ PPP over Ethernet over AAL5 (RFC 2516).
♦ RFC 1661.
♦ PPP over PAP (RFC 1334).
♦ PPP over CHAP (RFC 1994).

Protocol Support

♦ DHCP Support
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows the individual clients (computers) to
obtain the TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a centralized DHCP server. The Prestige has
built-in DHCP server capability enabled by default. It can assign IP addresses, an IP default
gateway and DNS servers to DHCP clients. The Prestige can now also act as a surrogate
DHCP server (DHCP Relay) where it relays IP address assignment from the actual real DHCP
server to the clients.
♦ IP Alias
IP Alias allows you to partition a physical network into logical networks over the same
Ethernet interface. The Prestige supports three logical LAN interfaces via its single physical
Ethernet interface with the Prestige itself as the gateway for each LAN network.
♦ IP Policy Routing (IPPR)
Traditionally, routing is based on the destination address only and the router takes the shortest
path to forward a packet. IP Policy Routing (IPPR) provides a mechanism to override the
default routing behavior and alter the packet forwarding based on the policy defined by the
network administrator.
♦ PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) link layer protocol.
♦ Transparent bridging for unsupported network layer protocols.
