DESCRIPTION
Select an interface for which you want to configure here.
PTM: The P-2812HNU-51c uses the VDSL technology for data
transmission over the DSL port.
ATM: The P-2812HNU-51c uses the ADSL technology for data
transmission over the DSL port.
Ethernet: The P-2812HNU-51c transmits data over the Ethernet WAN
port. Select this if you have a DSL router or modem in your network
already.
This displays whether the P-2812HNU-51c uses the DSL port or
Ethernet WAN port for Internet access.
When you set the DSL/WAN switch (on the back of the P-2812HNU-
51c) to the DSL side, this displays PTM/ATM WAN. The WAN port
will be disabled automatically.
When you set the DSL/WAN switch to the WAN side, this displays
ETH WAN. The DSL port will be disabled automatically. This allows
the P-2812HNU-51c to work as an Ethernet gateway instead of a DSL
router. To access the Internet, connect the WAN port to a broadband
modem or router.
This is the name of the interface.
This is the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI).
This is the Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI).
This is the ATM traffic class.
This is the DSL link type of the ATM layer-2 interface.
This displays whether QoS (Quality of Service) is enabled on the P-
2812HNU-51c.
Click the Remove button to delete this interface from the P-2812HNU-
51c. A window displays asking you to confirm that you want to delete
the interface.
Note: You cannot remove the layer-2 interface when a WAN
