Prestige 324 User's Guide 19.2.2 PPPoE Encapsulation The Prestige supports PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet). You can only use PPPoE encapsulation when you're using the Prestige with a DSL modem as the WAN device. If you change the Encapsulation to PPPoE, then you will see the next screen. Please see the appendix for more information on PPPoE.

However, some vendor's implementation includes a specific authentication protocol in the user profile. It will disconnect if the negotiated protocol is different from that in the user profile, even when the negotiated protocol is stronger than specified. If you encounter a case where the peer disconnects right after a successful authentication, please make sure that you specify the correct authentication protocol when connecting to such an implementation. Nailed-Up Connection A nailed-up connection is a dial-up line where the connection is always up regardless of traffic demand. The Prestige does two things when you specify a nailed-up connection. The first is that idle timeout is disabled. 19-4 Remote Node Configuration
