2.Basics of the SDSL Bridge/Router
2.1Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the SDSL Bridge / Router !
SDSL, which stands for Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line, featues the same high
data transmission rates both upstream and downstream. It is ideal to business
users as it enables them to take full advantage of applications (such as video
conferencing, LAN-to -LAN VPN connections and large file transfers) that require
high bandwidth in both directions.
The SDSL Bridge / Router offers faster and uninterrupted Internet access and is
capable of a data transmission rate up to 2.32 Mbps upstream and downstream.
This product is an embedded solution that is OS independent. It can be connected
to any computer with an Ethernet card. The Ethernet connection allows direct
interface to any existing IEEE 802.3 L AN network, providing instant broadband
Internet access to LAN networks with minimum hassle.
SDSL service providers can offer SDSL services to a multi-user business
environment with support for both Static and Dynamic IP Routing, Network
Address Translation and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Server.
This bridge/router features multiple data encapsulation formats for DSL transport
over ATM PVCs, including the widely supported ATM protocols RFC 1483 (MPoA),
RFC 1577 (IPoA) and RFC 2364 (PPPoA).
Utilising Conexant ZipWire
manufacturers, this bridge/router fur ther guarantees interoperability with network
providers worldwide.

3.Setting Up Local Management
Local management refers to the process of managing and configuring the settings
of your router for your network environment. It is done via a PC connected to
your router.
Before running local management, communication between your router and your
PC has to be configured and established for them to 'understand each other'. You
need to setup a physical link between your router and the PC via a serial cable
as described in Section 3.1. Section 3.2 will show you how to configure the
interface link to allow communication between your PC and your router.
Setting up of local management needs only to be carried out once
for the

3.1Setting up the Serial Link
i)Connect one end of a serial cable to the COM Port (9-pin) of your PC and
the other end to the Serial Port (9-pin) of your router.
ii)Connect your router to the Power Mains via the Power adaptor (that comes
with your package). You may refer to Section 2.5 for the illustrated
connection.

5.Configuring Your Router
1.Please refer to Appendix C - Quick Start for Router Configurations
(Flow Chart) for an overview of the router configurations.
2.All IP addresses and PVC values stated in this manual serve
only as examples for better understanding. You are required to
replace these values with those given by your SDSL Service
Provider/System Administrator.
3.Console commands are case-sensitive. Punctuations (examples:
'_' underscore, '-' hyphen, ' ' spacing, etc) must be adhered to
strictly.
4.For detailed description and syntax of console commands, you may
refer toAppendix A - Commonly Used Commandson this manual
or the ATMOS Console Commands Reference Manualfound on
the CD-ROM.
5.1Network Setup Overview
This section gives an overview of a typical network. The addresses indicated are
used as examples throughout the whole manual. You are to replace them with
values given by your System Administrator / ISP.

Network ID : 202.166.30.0Broadcast ID :202.166.30.7
The ISP will have to create a static route:

The WAN IP and WAN Gateway will be dynamically assigned by the
PPP server. There is no need to specify the WAN IP nor to
configure a default route to the WAN Gateway.
Configuring the PCs:
For PC A:
(with NAT)(without NAT)
IP= 192.168.1.11= 202.166.30.2
Subnet mask = 255.255.255.0 = 255.255.255.248

For PC B:
(with NAT)(without NAT)
IP= 192.168.1.12= 202.166.30.3
Subnet mask = 255.255.255.0 = 255.255.255.248
Gateway= 192.168.1.1= 202.166.30.1
For PC X:
(with NAT)(without NAT)
IP= 192.168.1.23= 202.166.30.6
Subnet mask = 255.255.255.0 = 255.255.255.248
