Introduction to DSL

DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) technology enhances the data capacity of the existing twisted-pair wire that runs between the local telephone company switching offices and most homes and offices. While the wire itself can handle higher frequencies, the telephone switching equipment is designed to cut off signals above 4,000 Hz to filter noise off the voice line, but now everybody is searching for ways to get more bandwidth to improve access to the Web - hence DSL technologies.
There are actually seven types of DSL service, ranging in speeds from 16 Kbits/sec to 52 Mbits/sec. The services are either symmetrical (traffic flows at the same speed in both directions), or asymmetrical (the downstream capacity is higher than the upstream capacity). Asymmetrical services (ADSL) are suitable for Internet users because more information is usually downloaded than uploaded. For example, a simple button click in a web browser can start an extended download that includes graphics and text.
As data rates increase, the carrying distance decreases. That means that users who are beyond a certain distance from the telephone company’s central office may not be able to obtain the higher speeds.
A DSL connection is a point-to-point dedicated circuit, meaning that the link is always up and there is no dialing required.
What is ADSL?
It is an asymmetrical technology, meaning that the downstream data rate is much higher than the upstream data rate. As mentioned, this works well for a typical Internet session in which more information is downloaded, for example, from Web servers, than is uploaded. ADSL operates in a frequency range that is above the frequency range of voice services, so the two systems can operate over the same cable.

Chapter 1
Getting To Know Your Prestige
This chapter describes the key features and applications of your Prestige.

1.1 Introducing the Prestige 645R-A Series

Your Prestige integrates a high-speed 10/100Mbps auto-negotiating LAN interface and a high-speed DSL port into a single package. The Prestige is ideal for high-speed Internet browsing and making LAN-to-LAN connections to remote networks.
The web browser-based Graphical User Interface provides easy management and is totally independent of the operating system platform you use.

1.2 Features of the Prestige

Your Prestige is packed with a number of features that give it the flexibility to provide a complete networking solution for almost any user.
Ease of Installation
Your Prestige is designed for quick, intuitive and easy installation. Physically, its compact size and lightness make it easy to position anywhere in your busy office.
High Speed Internet Access
The Prestige supports downstream transmission rates of up to 8Mbps and upstream transmission rates of 800 Kbps.
10/100Mbps Auto-negotiating Fast Ethernet LAN Interface
This auto-negotiation feature allows the Prestige to detect the speed of incoming transmissions and adjust appropriately without manual intervention. It allows data transfer of either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps in either half-duplex or full-duplex mode depending on your Ethernet network.
Protocols Supported
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) network layer protocol.
PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) link layer protocol.
Getting To Know Your Prestige 1-1
Prestige 645R-A Series User’s Guide
Transparent bridging for unsupported network layer protocols.
DHCP Client, Server and Relay
RIP I and RIP II
IP Policy Routing
IP Policy Routing (IPPR) provides a mechanism to override the default routing behavior and alter the packet forwarding based on the policy defined by the network administrator.
Call Scheduling
Configure call time periods to allow and restrict access to remote nodes.
Networking Compatibility
Your Prestige is compatible with the major ADSL DSLAM (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer) providers, making configuration as simple as possible for you.
Multiplexing
Your Prestige supports VC-based and LLC-based multiplexing.
Encapsulation
The Prestige supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 - PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation over ATM and MAC encapsulated routing (ENET ENCAP) as well as PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516).
SNMP
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a protocol used for exchanging management information between network devices. SNMP is a member of the TCP/IP protocol suite. Your Prestige supports SNMP agent functionality, which allows a manager station to manage and monitor the Prestige through the network. The Prestige supports SNMP version one (SNMPv1) and version two (SNMPv2).
Network Address Translation (NAT)
Network Address Translation (NAT) allows the translation of an Internet protocol address used within one network (for example a private IP address used in a local network) to a different IP address known within another network (for example a public IP address used on the Internet).
Full Network Management
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) support.
SMT (System Management Terminal) through a telnet connection.
Web configurator.
1-2 Getting To Know Your Prestige
Prestige 645R-A Series User’s Guide
PAP and CHAP Security
The Prestige supports PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol). CHAP is more secure since the password is scrambled prior to transmission. However, PAP is readily available on more platforms.
Filters
The Prestige's packet filtering functions allow added network security and management.
Reset Button
The Prestige comes with a reset button built into the rear panel. Use this button to restore the factory default password to 1234, IP address to 192.168.1.1, subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 and DHCP server enabled with a pool of 32 IP addressed starting at 192.168.1.33.

1.3 Applications for the Prestige

Here are some example uses for which the Prestige is well suited.
1.3.1 Internet Access
The Prestige is the ideal high-speed Internet access solution. Your Prestige supports the TCP/IP protocol, which the Internet uses exclusively. It is compatible with all major ADSL DSLAM providers. A DSLAM is a rack of ADSL line cards with data multiplexed into a backbone network interface/connection (e.g., T1, OC3, DS3, ATM or Frame Relay). Think of it as the equivalent of a modem rack for ADSL. A typical Internet Access application is shown next.
