DG834G Reference Manual • PPP over ATM (PPPoA) PPP over ATM is a protocol for connecting remote hosts to the Internet over an ADSL connection by simulating an ATM connection. • Dynamic DNS Dynamic DNS services allow remote users to find your network using a domain name when your IP address is not permanently assigned. The ADSL modem router contains a client that can connect to many popular Dynamic DNS services to register your dynamic IP address. • Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) UPnP is a networking architecture that provides compatibility between networking technologies. UPnP compliant routers provide broadband users at home and small businesses with a seamless way to participate in online games, videoconferencing and other peer-to-peer services. Virtual Private Networking (VPN) The Wireless ADSL Modem Router provides a secure encrypted connection between your local area network (LAN) and remote networks or clients. It includes the following VPN features: • Supports 8 VPN connections. • Supports industry standard VPN protocols The Wireless ADSL Modem Router supports standard Manual or IKE keying methods, standard MD5 and SHA-1 authentication methods, and standard DES and 3DES encryption methods. It is compatible with many other VPN products. • Supports 3DES encryption for maximum security. • VPN Wizard based on VPNC recommended settings. Auto Sensing and Auto Uplink™ LAN Ethernet Connections With its internal 4-port 10/100 switch, the DG834G can connect to either a 10 Mbps standard Ethernet network or a 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet network. The local LAN ports are autosensing and capable of full-duplex or half-duplex operation. The ADSL modem router incorporates Auto UplinkTM technology. Each local Ethernet port will automatically sense whether the Ethernet cable plugged into the port should have a 'normal' connection such as to a computer or an 'uplink' connection such as to a switch or hub. That port will then configure itself to the correct configuration. This feature also eliminates the need to worry about crossover cables, as Auto Uplink will accommodate either type of cable to make the right connection. Introduction 2-5 v3.0, September 2005
