Features And Benefits - D-Link DSL-2760U User Manual

D-Link DSL-2760U USER'S MANUAL
PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) Security – The Router supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP (Challenge Handshake

Authentication Protocol) for PPP connections. The Router also supports MSCHAP.
DHCP Support – Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol automatically and dynamically assigns all LAN IP settings to each host on your network. This

eliminates the need to reconfigure every host whenever changes in network topology occur.
Network Address Translation (NAT) – For small office environments, the Router allows multiple users on the LAN to access the Internet

concurrently through a single Internet account. This provides Internet access to everyone in the office for the price of a single user. NAT improves
network security in effect by hiding the private network behind one global and visible IP address. NAT address mapping can also be used to link two IP
domains via a LAN-to-LAN connection.
TCP/IP (Transfer Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) – The Router supports TCP/IP protocol, the language used for the Internet. It is

compatible with access servers manufactured by major vendors.
RIP-1/RIP-2 – The Router supports both RIP-1 and RIP-2 exchanges with other routers. Using both versions lets the Router to communicate with all

RIP enabled devices.
Static Routing – This allows you to select a data path to a particular network destination that will remain in the routing table and never "age out". If you

wish to define a specific route that will always be used for data traffic from your LAN to a specific destination within your LAN (for example to another
router or a server) or outside your network (to an ISP defined default gateway for instance).
Default Routing – This allows you to choose a default path for incoming data packets for which the destination address is unknown. This is

particularly useful when/if the Router functions as the sole connection to the Internet.
ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) – The Router supports Bridged Ethernet over ATM (RFC1483), IP over ATM (RFC1577), and PPP over ATM

(RFC 2364).
Precise ATM Traffic Shaping – Traffic shaping is a method of controlling the flow rate of ATM data cells. This function helps to establish the Quality of

Service for ATM data transfer.
High Performance – Very high rates of data transfer are possible with the Router. Up to 24 Mbps downstream bit rate using ADSL 2+ standard.

Full Network Management – The Router incorporates SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) support for web-based management and

text-based network management via an RS-232 or Telnet connection.
Telnet Connection – The Telnet enables a network manager to access the Router's management software remotely.

Easy Installation – The Router uses a web-based graphical user interface program for convenient management access and easy set up. Any

common web browser software can be used to manage the Router.
