may also access this scr een by double-click ing the Local Area Connection icon on your taskbar). Click the Properties button.

STEP 2: Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click the Properties button. STEP 3: Select Obt ain an IP address automa ticall y as shown below.

STEP 4: Click OK to submit these settings.

If you experience difficulty with DHCP mode, you can try static IP mode instead, as described on the next page.

12

STATIC IP MODE

In static IP mode, you assign IP settings to your PC manually. Follow these steps to configure your PC IP address to use subnet 192.168.1.x.

NOTE: The following procedure assumes you are running Windows XP.

However, the general steps involved are similar for most operating systems (OS). C heck your O S supp ort do cumenta tion fo r f urthe r de ta ils .

STEP 1: From the Network Connections window , open Local Area Connection (You

may also access this scr een by double-click ing the Local Area Connection icon on your taskbar). Click the Properties button.

STEP 2: Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click the Properties button. STEP 3: Change the IP address to the domain of 192.168.1.x (1<x<255) with

subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. The screen should now displa y as below.

STEP 4: Click OK to submit these settings.

13

3.3 Login Procedure

Perform the following steps to login to the web user interface.

NOTE: The default settings can be found in section 3.1.

STEP 1: Start the Internet browser and enter the default IP address for the device

in the Web address field. For example, if the default IP address is

192.168.1.1, type http://192.168.1.1.

NOTE: For local ad m in istration (i.e. LAN access), the PC running the bro w ser

must be attached to the Ethernet, and not necessarily to the device. For remote access (i.e. WAN), use the IP address shown on the Quick Setup

After login, the Quick Setup screen will appear as shown.

NOTE: The selections a vailable on the main menu are based upo n the configured

connection type and user account privileges.

The Quick Setup screen allows the user to configure the CT-5364A for ADSL connectivity and Internet access. It also guides the user though the WAN network setup first and then the LAN interface setup. You can either do this manually or follow the auto quick setup (i.e. DSL Auto-connect) instructions.

This router supports the fol low in g data enca psu l at ion methods.

• PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)

• PPP over A TM ( P PPoA)

• MAC Encapsulated Routing (MER)

• IP over ATM (IPoA)

• ridging

14

The following configuration considerations apply:

• The WAN network operating mode operation depends on the service provider’s configuration in the Central Office and roadband Access Server for the PVC

• If the service provider provides PPPoE service, then the connection selection depends on whether the LAN-side device (typically a PC) is running a PPPoE client or whether the router is to run the PPPoE client. The router can support both cases simulta ne ously.

• If none of the LAN-side devices run PPPoE clients, then select PPPoE.

• NAT and firewall can be enabled or disabled by the user in router modes (PPPoE,

PPPoA, MER or IPoA) and they are always disabled with ridge mode.

• Depending on the network operating mode, and whether NAT and firewall are enabled or disabled, the main menu will display or hide NAT and Firewall.

NOTE: Up to sixteen PVC profiles can be configured and saved on the flash

memory. To activate a particular PVC profile, you need to navigate all the Quick Setup pages until the last summary page, then click on the Finish button and reboot the system.

3.4 Auto Quick Setup

The auto quick setup requires the ADSL link to be up. The ADSL router will automatically detect the PVC, so just follow the easy online instructions.

STEP 1: Select Quick Setup to display this screen.

STEP 2: Click Next to sta rt t h e set up pro ce s s. Follow the online instructions to

complete the settings. This procedure will skip some processes such as the PVC index and encapsulation mode selection.

STEP 3: After the settings are complete, you can use the ADSL service.

15

3.5 Manual Quick Setup

STEP 1: Click Quick Setup and un-tick the DSL Auto-connect checkbox to

enable manual configura t ion of the connect ion typ e.

STEP 2: Enter the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) an d Virtual Channel Iden tifier (VCI)

values. Select Enable Qualit y Of Serv ice if required and click Next.

16

STEP 3: Choose an Encapsulatio n mo de . Choosing different connection types provides different encapsulation modes.

• PPPoA- VC /M U X, LLC/ENCAPSULATION

• PPPoE- LLC/SNAP RIDGING, VC/MUX

• MER- LLC/SNAP-RIDGING, VC/MUX

• IPoA- LLC/SNAP-ROUTING, VC MUX

• ridging- LLC/SNAP-RIDGING, VC/MUX

NOTE: Subsections 4.2.1 - 4.2.4 describe the PVC setup procedure further.

Choosing different connection types pops up different settings requests. Enter settings as directed by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

17

3.5.1 PPP over ATM (PPPoA) and PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)

STEP 4: Select the PPP over ATM (PPPoA) or PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) radio

button and click Next. The following screen appears.

PPP Username/PPP Password: The PPP Username and the PPP password

requirement are dependent on the particular requirements of the ISP or the ADSL service provider. The WE user interface allows a maximum of 256 characters for the PPP user name and a maximum of 32 characters for the PPP password.

PPPoE Service Name: For PPPoE service, PADI requests contain a service label. Some PPPoE servers (or RAS) of ISP chec k this service labe l to make a connection.

Dial on Demand

The device can be configured to disco nnect if there is no act ivity for a period of time by selecting this che ck bo x. When the checkbox is ticked, you must enter th e inactivity timeout period. The timeout period ranges from 1 to 4320 minutes.

18

PPP IP Extension

The PPP IP Extension is a special feature deployed by some service providers. Unless your service provider specially requires this setup, do not select it. PPP IP Extension does the following:

• Allows only one PC on the LAN

• The public IP address assigned by the remote side using the PPP/IPCP

protocol is actually not used on the WAN PPP interface. Instead, it is forwarded to the PC LAN interface through DHCP. Only one PC on the LAN can be connected to the remote, since the DHCP server within the device has only a single I P address to assign to a LAN device.

• The device becomes the default gateway and DNS server to the PC through DHCP using the LAN interface IP address.

• The device extends the IP subnet at the remote service provider to the LAN PC. i.e. the PC becomes a host belonging to the same IP subnet.

• The device bridges the IP packets between WAN and LAN ports, unless the packet is addressed to the device’s LAN IP address.

Enable NAT

If the LAN is configured with a private IP address, the user should select this checkbox. The NAT submenu will display after the next reboot. The user can then configure NAT -related features. If a private IP address is not used on the LAN side, this checkbox should not be selected so as to free up system resources.

Enable Fullcone NAT: Known as one-to-one NAT, all requests from the same internal IP address and port are mapped to the same external IP address and port. An external host can se nd a p acket to t he int erna l h ost, b y send ing a p acket to th e mapped external address.

Enable Firewall

If the firewal l checkbo x is select ed, the Security sub menu wil l displa y after the ne xt reboot. The user can then configure firewall features. If the firewall is not used, this checkbox should not be selected so as to free up system resources.

Use Static IP Address

Unless your service provid er specially requires this setup, do not select it. If selected, enter your static IP address.

Retry PPP password on authentication error

Tick the box to select.

Enable PPP Debug Mode

Enable the PPPoE debug mode. The system will put more PPP connection information in System Log. This is used for debugging purposes.

Bridge PPPoE Frames Between WAN and Local Ports If Enabled, the function can create a local PPPoE connection to the WAN side.

Fixed MTU

Select the checkbox to enable Fixed MTU and adjust the MTU value for WAN Interface, PPPoE and PPPoA. Default values are 1492 for PPPoE and 1500 for PPPoA.

19

STEP 5: Click Next to display the following screen.

Enable IGMP Multicast: Tick the checkbox to enable IGMP multicast (proxy).

IGMP (Internet Group Membership Protocol) is a protocol used by IP hosts to report their multicast group memberships to any immediately neighboring multicast routers.

connection type and user account privileges.

The Quick Setup screen allows the user to configure the CT-5364A for ADSL connectivity and Internet access. It also guides the user though the WAN network setup first and then the LAN interface setup. You can either do this manually or follow the auto quick setup (i.e. DSL Auto-connect) instructions.

This router supports the fol low in g data enca psu l at ion methods.

• PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)

• PPP over A TM ( P PPoA)

• MAC Encapsulated Routing (MER)

• IP over ATM (IPoA)

• ridging

The following configuration considerations apply:

• The WAN network operating mode operation depends on the service provider’s configuration in the Central Office and roadband Access Server for the PVC

• If the service provider provides PPPoE service, then the connection selection depends on whether the LAN-side device (typically a PC) is running a PPPoE client or whether the router is to run the PPPoE client. The router can support both cases simulta ne ously.

• If none of the LAN-side devices run PPPoE clients, then select PPPoE.

• NAT and firewall can be enabled or disabled by the user in router modes (PPPoE,

PPPoA, MER or IPoA) and they are always disabled with ridge mode.

• Depending on the network operating mode, and whether NAT and firewall are enabled or disabled, the main menu will display or hide NAT and Firewall.

The PPP IP Extension is a special feature deployed by some service providers. Unless your service provider specially requires this setup, do not select it. PPP IP Extension does the following:

39

• Allows only one PC on the LAN

• The public IP address assigned by the remote side using the PPP/IPCP

protocol is actually not used on the WAN PPP interface. Instead, it is forwarded to the PC LAN interface through DHCP. Only one PC on the LAN can be connected to the remote, since the DHCP server within the device has only a single I P address to assign to a LAN device.

• The device becomes the default gateway and DNS server to the PC through DHCP using the LAN interface IP address.

• The device extends the IP subnet at the remote service provider to the LAN PC. i.e. the PC becomes a host belonging to the same IP subnet.

• The device bridges the IP packets between WAN and LAN ports, unless the packet is addressed to the device’s LAN IP address.

6.1.1 VLAN Mux

VLAN Mux is a form of VLAN tagging that allows multiple protocols over a single connection. It is espec i al ly us ef u l fo r VD SL 2 c on n ec t ion s in pa c ket t r a ns f er mod e.

This option is found on the Advanced WAN Setup screen. This is the first screen you will see when adding or editing a connection. VLAN Mux can be enabled by selecting the VLAN Mux – Enable Multiple Protocols Over a Single PVC check box, outlined in red below. Enter a value between 0 and 4095 for 802.Q VLA N ID.

69

After proceeding to STEP 3 in se ction Manual Quick Se tup, the scr een will appear as follows. Notice that PPPoA and IPoA are not available.

70

PVCs can be added using the regular procedure, however, now multiple protocols can exist over the same connection, as long as the 802.1Q VLAN IDs differ.

The graphic below shows an example of three protoco ls o v er the same connection.

6.1.2 MSP

Multi-Serv ice o ve r PVC ( MSP) support s mu ltip le prot oc ols over a single conne ct ion. As with the VLAN Mux funct ion, PPP oE, ridge and MER protocols can coexist, while IPoA and PPPoA are not supported. This function supports remote management by bridge protocol in addition to multimedia applications over a single PVC.

Configuring MSP is a two-part process:

Part 1 - Create mult iple P VCs (One ridge + multiple PP P o E / One MER) Part 2 - Use Port Mapping to connect LAN / WAN interfaces

The following example shows how to configure a ridge / PPPoE MSP connection. The same process can be used for ridge / MER MSP connections.

NOTE: If QoS is configured on the first MSP connection, it will be configured by

default for all subsequent connections.

If a MSP connection is removed every other MSP connection should be

removed to avoid port mapping configuration problems.

Part 1 – Create Multiple PVCs

On the Advanced Setup – WAN screen, create one PPPoE connection and one ridge connection on the MSP supporting PVC. The screen will display as follows.

71

Part 2 Go to Advanced Setup – Interface Group screen and select the Enable Virtual

Ports checkbox. The screen will disp lay as follows.

NOTE: Only the ridge PVC is shown on the P ort Mapp ing config ur at ion. It is in

72

the format of “ nas_x_y_z” where x=port, y=vpi, and z=vci.

T o continue, clic k the Add button at the bottom of the screen shown above. On the next screen, select the bridge connection and one Ethernet virtual port (ENET 1-4) and enter a Group Name, such as “MSP1”, as shown below. Click Save/Apply.

If successfully configured, the Port Mapping screen will display as follows.

For example, imagine there are 4 PVCs (0/33, 0/36, 0/37, 0/38), VPI/VCI=0/33 is for PPPoE while the other PVCs are for IP set-top box use, and the LAN interfaces are ENET1, ENET2, ENET3, and ENET4. The Interface Grouping configuration will be:

1. Default: ENET1, ENET2, ENET3, and ENET4.

2. Video: nas_0_36, nas_0_37, and nas_0_38. The DHCP vendor ID is "Video".

The local DHCP server is running on "Default" and the remote DHCP server is running on PVC 0/36 (i.e. for set-top box use only). LAN side clients can get IP addresses from the CPE's DHCP server and access the Internet via PPPoE (0/33).

If a set-top box is conn ecte d to EN ET1 and sen ds a DH CP req uest with ve ndor ID "Video", the local DHCP server will forward this request to the remote DHCP server . The Interface Grouping configuration will automatically cha nge to the following:

1. Default: ENET2, ENET3, and ENET4.

2. Video: nas_0_36, nas_0_37, nas_0_38, and ENET1.
