DM111P ADSL2+ Ethernet Modem Reference Manual Easy Installation and Management You can install, configure, and operate the DM111P within minutes after connecting it to the network. The following features simplify installation and management tasks: • Browser-based management Browser-based configuration allows you to easily configure your modem from almost any type of personal computer, such as Windows, Macintosh, or Linux. A user-friendly Setup Wizard is provided and online help documentation is built into the browser-based Web Management Interface. • Smart Wizard A wizard built into the modem automatically senses the type of Internet connection, asking you only for the information required for your type of ISP account. • Diagnostic functions The modem incorporates built-in diagnostic functions such as Ping, DNS lookup, and remote reboot. These functions allow you to test Internet connectivity and reboot the modem. You can use these diagnostic functions directly from the DM111P when you are connected on the LAN or when you are connected over the Internet via the remote management function. • Visual monitoring The modem's front panel LEDs provide an easy way to monitor its status and activity. • Flash erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM) for firmware upgrades. Protocol Support The DM111P supports Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and Routing Information Protocol (RIP). "Internet Networking and TCP/IP Addressing:" in Appendix B provides further information on TCP/IP. • Automatic Configuration of Attached PCs by DHCP The DM111P dynamically assigns network configuration information, including IP, modem, and domain name server (DNS) addresses, to attached PCs on the LAN using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). This feature greatly simplifies configuration of PCs on your local network. • PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) PPP over Ethernet is a protocol for connecting remote hosts to the Internet over an ADSL connection by simulating a dial-up connection. This feature eliminates the need to run a login program such as EnterNet or WinPOET on your computer. 1-2 Introduction v1.0, August 2006
