ProSafe VPN Firewall 200 FVX538 Reference Manual 2. What type of IPS connection do you use? If your connection is PPPoE, PPTP or BigPond Cable, then you must login. Check the Yes radio box. The text box fields that require data entry will be highlighted, based on the connection that you selected. If your ISP has not assigned any login information, then choose the No radio box and skip this section. For example: • Austria (PPTP): If your ISP is Austria Telecom or any other ISP that uses PPTP for login, select this. Then, fill in the following highlighted fields: - Account Name (also known as Host Name or System Name): Enter the valid account name for the PPTP connection (usually your email "ID" assigned by your ISP). Some ISPs require entering your full email address here. - Domain Name: Your domain name or workgroup name assigned by your ISP, or your ISPs domain name. You may leave this field blank. - Idle Timeout: Check the Keep Connected radio box to keep the connection always on. To logout after the connection is idle for a period of time, select Idle Time and enter the number of minutes to wait before disconnecting in the timeout field. This is useful if your ISP charges you based on the amount of time you have logged in. - My IP Address: IP address assigned by the ISP to make the connection with the ISP server. - Server IP Address: IP address of the PPTP server. • Other (PPPoE): If you have installed login software such as WinPoET or Enternet, then your connection type is PPPoE. Select this connection and configure the following fields: - Account Name: Valid account name for the PPPoE connection - Domain Name: Name of your ISPs domain or your domain name if your ISP has assigned one. You may leave this field blank. - Idle Timeout: Select Keep Connected, to keep the connection always on. To logout after the connection is idle for a period of time, select Idle Time and enter the number of minutes to wait before disconnecting, in the timeout field. 3. If your ISP has assigned a fixed (static or permanent) IP address, select the Use Static IP Address radio box and fill in the following fields: a. IP Address: Static IP address assigned to you. This will identify the router to your ISP. b. Subnet Mask: This is usually provided by the ISP or your network administrator. c. Gateway IP Address: IP address of the ISP's gateway. This is usually provided by the ISP or your network administrator. Connecting the FVX538 to the Internet 2-5 v1.0, March 2009
