DSL-500G ADSL Router User’s Guide

Quick Configuration

The Quick Configuration displays the settings you are most likely to need to change when you first set up the

Router. These settings are explained briefly below:

ATM Interface

Select the ATM interface you want to use (use atm-0 for a single

ATM interface). Your system may be configured with more than one

ATM interface if you are using different types of services with your

ISP. See ATM VC Configuration.

Operation Mode

This setting enables or disables the device's Internet and routing

functions. When set to "No", the device cannot be used to provide

Internet connectivity for your network.

Encapsulation

This setting determines the type of data link used to communicate

with your ISP. See ATM VC Configuration.

VPI and VCI

These settings determine the unique data path your modem uses to

communicate with your ISP. See ATM VC Configuration.

Bridge

This setting enables or disables bridging between the device and

your ISP. Your ISPs may also refer to this using "RFC 1483" or

"Ethernet over ATM". See Bridging.

IGMP

This setting enables or disables the Internet Group Management

Protocol, which some ISPs use to perform remote configuration of

your device.

IP Address and Subnet

Mask

If your ISP has assigned a public IP address to your LAN, enter the

address and the associated subnet mask in the boxes provided.

Check with your ISP to get this information. You may have to use the

public IP address for your computer. In this case you do not enter the

IP address here but configure these settings for your computer.

Default Route

When enabled, this setting specifies that the IP address specified

above will be used as the default route for your LAN. Whenever, one

of your LAN computers attempts to access the Internet, the data will

be sent via the WAN interface.

Gateway IP Address

Specify the IP address that identifies the ISP server through which

your Internet connection will be routed.

Username and Password

Enter the username and password you use to log in to your ISP.

(Note: this is not the same as the user name and password you used

to log in to Web Configuration Manager.)

Use DNS

Click Enable to turn on the DNS forwarding service, which forwards

to your LAN PCs the Domain Name System server addresses that

your PPP connection learns from your ISP. This option can only be

used when the Router is configured to act as a DHCP server for your

PCs.

If you click Disable, you must configure DNS addresses manually on

each PC or in the fields below.

Primary/Secondary DNS

Enter the Primary and Secondary DNS server addresses provided by

your ISP.

Click the Submit button to save the settings in temporary memory. When you are done making changes to the

configuration settings, open the Commit & Reboot menu and click the Commit button to save your changes to

permanent memory.

You can click the Delete button to remove all existing Quick Configuration settings and return to the default

values.
