Chapter 2 ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) 2.1. What is ADSL? ADSL is an asymmetrical technology, meaning that the downstream data rate is much higher than the upstream data rate. It enhances the data capacity of the existing twisted-pair wire that runs between the local telephone company switching offices and most homes and offices.
conferencing, distance learning and video-on-demand. 6. ADSL provides Telcos with the ability to offer a private, secure channel of communications between the consumer and the service provider. 7. Data stream travels along the customers’ own line. It is quite unlike traditional telephone and modem services sharing the line with others.
VPI’ s & VCI’ s 2.3. Multiplexing There are two conventions to identify what protocols the virtual circuit (VC) is carrying. Be sure to use the multiplexing method required by your ISP. ? ? VC-based multiplexing Each protocol is assigned to a specific virtual circuit, e.g., VC1carries IP, VC2 carries IPX, etc.
ISP to use their existing network configuration with newer broadband technologies such as ADSL. The PPPoE driver on Micronet SP3353 is transparent to the PCs on the LAN, which see only Ethernet and are not aware of PPPoE thus saving you from having to manage PPPoE clients on individual PCs.
Benefits of PPPoE PPPoE offers the following benefits: 1. It provides a familiar dial-up networking (DUN) user interface. 2. PPPoE lessens the burden on the carriers of provisioning virtual circuits all the way to the ISP on multiple switches for thousands of users. For PSTN and ISDN, the switching fabric is already in place.

Your Server does not have a valid external IP Address. Attempts to connect to devices on your LAN are blocked by the firewall in this device. The "Virtual Server" feature solves these problems and allows Internet users to connect to your servers. However, your LAN must have an existing connection to the Internet.
Note that the TOTAL number of Virtual Servers which can be used is 10. 7.3. NAT Port Mapping If your ADSL account within multi-real IP Addresses then Multi-Global IP mapping function is a useful feature for Internet application. The Multi-Global IP mapping function helps you dividing the client PCs on the LAN into several groups and each group access Internet through one real IP Address.

ATM is a connection oriented packet switching technology using fixed size packets, called cells. These cells consist of a header and a payload and are switched through a public or private ATM network depending on the contents of the header. End-to-end connections are formed by cross connecting individual ATM segments in ATM switches.
Chapter 9 Glossary Address mask A bit mask used to select bits from an Internet address for subnet addressing. The mask is 32 bits long and selects the network portion of the Internet address and one or more bits of the local portion. Sometimes called subnet mask. AAL5 ATM Adaptation Layer - This layer maps higher layer user data into ATM cells, making the data suitable for transport through the ATM network.

for routing packets on the Internet and other TCP/IP-based networks. IPCP (PPP) IP Control Protocol allows changes to IP parameters such as the IP address. On a local area network (LAN) or other network, the MAC (Media Access Control) address is your computer's unique hardware number. (On an Ethernet LAN, it's the same as your Ethernet address.) The MAC layer frames data for transmission over the network, then passes the frame to the physical layer interface where it is transmitted as a stream of bits.
