or data traffic;
UBR
(Unspecified Bit Rate) for applications
that are not time-sensitive, such as e-mail; or
VBR
(Variable
Bit Rate) for bursty traffic and bandwidth-sharing with
other applications.
NOTE:
If the QoS Type setting is CBR, then the SCR
Rate is not configurable. If the QoS Type setting
is UBR, then the PCR and SCR Rate settings are
not configurable.
PCR Rate
For the Peak Cell Rate (PCR), divide the DSL line
rate by 424 to get the maximum rate the sender can send
cells. Enter the rate in the field (if required by your service
provider).
SCR Rate
The Sustain Cell Rate (SCR) sets the average cell
rate that can be transmitted. The SCR value is normally
smaller than the PCR value. Enter the rate in the field (if
required by your service provider).
Autodetect
Select
Enable
to have the VPI/VCI settings
automatically detected, or select
Dsable
to enter the
values manually.
Vrtual Crcut
These fields consist of two items: VPI
(Virtual Path Identifier) and VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier).
Enter the settings provided by your ISP.
DSL Modulaton
Select the appropriate mode:
MultMode
,
T1.13
,
G.dmt
,
G.lte
,
ADSL2
, or
ADSL2+
.
Contact your ISP if you are not sure which mode to use.
Follow the instructions for your type of encapsulation.
RFC 2364 PPPoA
Some DSL-based ISPs use PPPoA (Point-to-Point Protocol
over ATM) to establish Internet connections. If you are
connected to the Internet through a DSL line, check with
your ISP to see if they use PPPoA. If they do, you will have
to enable PPPoA.

Connect on Demand: Max Idle Tme
You can configure
the Gateway to cut the Internet connection after it has
been inactive for a specified period of time (Max Idle Time).
If your Internet connection has been terminated due to
inactivity, Connect on Demand enables the Gateway to
automatically re-establish your connection as soon as you
attempt to access the Internet again. To use this option,
select
Connect on Demand
. In the
Max Idle Time
field,
enter the number of minutes you want to have elapsed
before your Internet connection terminates. The default
Max Idle Time is
minutes.
Keep Alve: Redal Perod
If you select this option,
the Gateway will periodically check your Internet
connection. If you are disconnected, then the Gateway
will automatically re-establish your connection. To
use this option, select
Keep Alve
. In the
Redial Period
field, specify how often you want the Gateway to check
the Internet connection. The default Redial Period is
30
seconds.
NOTE:
For New Zealand, follow these
instructions:

RFC 23 PPPoA
from the
Encapsulation drop-down menu.
For the Virtual Circuit ID, enter
0
for the VPI
and
100
for the VCI.
Select
VC
for Multiplexing.
Select
Multmode
from the
DSL Modulation
drop-down menu.

RFC 2516 PPPoE
Some DSL-based ISPs use PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol
over Ethernet) to establish Internet connections. If you are
connected to the Internet through a DSL line, check with
your ISP to see if they use PPPoE. If they do, you will have
to enable PPPoE.
