Supported Link-Layer Protocols
Typical SNMP DSU Configurations
7610-A2-GB20-10
The DSU supports two link-layer protocols for connection to an external SNMP
manager or network device:
Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)
Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP)
The following illustration shows a typical LAN/WAN interconnection application for
the DSU. The routers connected to the DSU at each location provide the LAN
interconnection.
