DESCRIPTION
The P-2812HNU-51c supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol)
and CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol). CHAP is
more secure than PAP; however, PAP is readily available on more
platforms.
Use the drop-down list box to select an authentication protocol for
outgoing calls. Options are:
AUTO - Your P-2812HNU-51c accepts either CHAP or PAP when
requested by this remote node.
CHAP - Your P-2812HNU-51c accepts CHAP only.
PAP - Your P-2812HNU-51c accepts PAP only.
MSCHAP - Your P-2812HNU-51c accepts MSCHAP only. MS-CHAP is
the Microsoft version of the CHAP.
Select this option to enable full cone NAT on the P-2812HNU-51c.
Select this check box when you do not want the connection up all the
time and specify an idle time-out in the Inactivity Timeout field.
Specify an idle time-out when you select Dial on Demand. The
default setting is 0, which means the Internet session will not timeout.
A static IPv4 address is a fixed IP that your ISP gives you. A dynamic
IP address is not fixed; the ISP assigns you a different one each time
you connect to the Internet. Select this if you do not have a dynamic
IP address.
Enter the static IP address provided by your ISP.
Select this option to display PPP debugging messages on the console.
Select this option to forward PPPoE packets from the WAN port to the
LAN ports and from the LAN ports to the WAN port.
In addition to the P-2812HNU-51c's built-in PPPoE client, you can
select this to allow up to ten hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE client
software on their computers to connect to the ISP via the P-2812HNU-
51c. Each host can have a separate account and a public WAN IP
address.
This is an alternative to NAT for application where NAT is not
appropriate.
Clear this if you do not need to allow hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE
client software on their computers to connect to the ISP.
This field is not available for a PPPoA connection.
Select this check box to have the P-2812HNU-51c act as an IGMP
proxy on this connection. This allows the P-2812HNU-51c to get
subscribing information and maintain a joined member list for each
multicast group. It can reduce multicast traffic significantly.
