Chapter 6 WAN Setup Table 19 Network > WAN > More Connections: Edit (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION Encapsulation Select the method of encapsulation used by your ISP from the drop-down list box. Choices vary depending on the mode you select in the Mode field. If you select Routing in the Mode field, select PPPoA, RFC 1483, ENET ENCAP or PPPoE. Multiplexing If you select Bridge in the Mode field, method of encapsulation is not available. Select the method of multiplexing used by your ISP from the drop-down list. Choices are VC or LLC. By prior agreement, a protocol is assigned a specific virtual circuit, for example, VC1 will carry IP. If you select VC, specify separate VPI and VCI numbers for each protocol. IPv6/IPv4 Dual Stack VPI VCI IP Address For LLC-based multiplexing or PPP encapsulation, one VC carries multiple protocols with protocol identifying information being contained in each packet header. In this case, only one set of VPI and VCI numbers need be specified for all protocols. If you select Enable, the ZyXEL Device can connect to IPv4 and IPv6 networks and choose the protocol for applications according to the address type. If you select Disable, the ZyXEL Device will operate in IPv4 mode. The valid range for the VPI is 0 to 255. Enter the VPI assigned to you. The valid range for the VCI is 32 to 65535 (0 to 31 is reserved for local management of ATM traffic). Enter the VCI assigned to you. This option is available if you select Routing in the Mode field. A static IP address is a fixed IP that your ISP gives you. A dynamic IP address is not fixed; the ISP assigns you a different one each time you connect to the Internet. If you use the encapsulation type except RFC 1483, select Obtain an IP Address Automatically when you have a dynamic IP address; otherwise select Static IP Address and type your ISP assigned IP address in the IP Address field below. Subnet Mask Default Gateway IPv6 Address Obtain an IP Address Automatically Static IP Address DHCP IPv6 If you use RFC 1483, enter the IP address given by your ISP in the IP Address field. Enter a subnet mask in dotted decimal notation. Specify a gateway IP address (supplied by your ISP). Select this option if you want to have the ZyXEL Device use the IPv6 prefix from the connected router's Router Advertisement (RA) to generate an IPv6 address. Select this option if you have a fixed IPv6 address assigned by your ISP. Select DHCP if you want to obtain an IPv6 address from a DHCPv6 server. The IP address assigned by a DHCPv6 server has priority over the IP address automatically generated by the ZyXEL Device using the IPv6 prefix from an RA. DHCP PD IPv6 Address Prefix Length Select SLAAC (Stateless address autoconfiguration) to have the ZyXEL Device use the prefix to automatically generate a unique IP address that does not need to be maintained by a DHCP server. Select Enable to use DHCP PD (Prefix Delegation) to allow the Zyxel Device to pass the IPv6 prefix information to its LAN hosts. The hosts can then use the prefix to generate their IPv6 addresses. If Static IP Address is enabled, enter the IPv6 address of the ZyXEL Device in the WAN. If Static IP Address is enabled, enter the IPv6 prefix length in the WAN. 102 ADSL Router Series User's Guide

Encapsulation
Select the method of encapsulation used by your ISP from the drop-down list
box. Choices vary depending on the mode you select in the
Mode
field.
If you select
Routing
in the
Mode
field, select
PPPoA
,
RFC 1483
,
ENET
ENCAP
or
PPPoE
.
If you select
Bridge
in the
Mode
field, method of encapsulation is not available.
Multiplexing
Select the method of multiplexing used by your ISP from the drop-down list.
Choices are
VC
or
LLC
.
By prior agreement, a protocol is assigned a specific virtual circuit, for example,
VC1 will carry IP. If you select VC, specify separate VPI and VCI numbers for
each protocol.
For LLC-based multiplexing or PPP encapsulation, one VC carries multiple
protocols with protocol identifying information being contained in each packet
header. In this case, only one set of VPI and VCI numbers need be specified for
all protocols.
IPv6/IPv4 Dual Stack
If you select
Enable
, the ZyXEL Device can connect to IPv4 and IPv6 networks
and choose the protocol for applications according to the address type. If you
select
Disable,
the ZyXEL Device will operate in IPv4 mode.
VPI
The valid range for the VPI is 0 to 255. Enter the VPI assigned to you.
VCI
The valid range for the VCI is 32 to 65535 (0 to 31 is reserved for local
management of ATM traffic). Enter the VCI assigned to you.
IP Address
This option is available if you select
Routing
in the
Mode
field.
A static IP address is a fixed IP that your ISP gives you. A dynamic IP address is
not fixed; the ISP assigns you a different one each time you connect to the
Internet.
If you use the encapsulation type except
RFC 1483
, select
Obtain an IP
Address Automatically
when you have a dynamic IP address; otherwise select
Static IP Address
and type your ISP assigned IP address in the
IP Address
field below.
If you use
RFC 1483
, enter the IP address given by your ISP in the
IP Address
field.
Subnet Mask
Enter a subnet mask in dotted decimal notation.
Default Gateway
Specify a gateway IP address (supplied by your ISP).
IPv6 Address
Obtain an IP Address
Automatically
Select this option if you want to have the ZyXEL Device use the IPv6 prefix from
the connected router’s Router Advertisement (RA) to generate an IPv6 address.
Static IP Address
Select this option if you have a fixed IPv6 address assigned by your ISP.
DHCP IPv6
Select
DHCP
if you want to obtain an IPv6 address from a DHCPv6 server.
The IP address assigned by a DHCPv6 server has priority over the IP address
automatically generated by the ZyXEL Device using the IPv6 prefix from an RA.
Select
SLAAC
(Stateless address autoconfiguration) to have the ZyXEL Device
use the prefix to automatically generate a unique IP address that does not need
to be maintained by a DHCP server.
DHCP PD
Select
Enable
to use
DHCP PD
(Prefix Delegation) to allow the Zyxel Device to
pass the IPv6 prefix information to its LAN hosts. The hosts can then use the
prefix to generate their IPv6 addresses.
IPv6 Address
If Static IP Address is enabled, enter the IPv6 address of the ZyXEL Device in the
WAN.
Prefix Length
If Static IP Address is enabled, enter the IPv6 prefix length in the WAN.
