Chapter 1 Getting To Know Your Prestige

The Prestige is the ideal high-speed Internet access solution. Your Prestige supports the TCP/
IP protocol, which the Internet uses exclusively. It is compatible with all major ADSL 
DSLAM (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer) providers.  A DSLAM is a rack of 
ADSL line cards with data multiplexed into a backbone network interface/connection (for 
example, T1, OC3, DS3, ATM or Frame Relay). Think of it as the equivalent of a modem rack 
for ADSL. In addition, the Prestige allows wireless clients access to your network resources. A 
typical Internet access application is shown below.

For a SOHO (Small Office/Home Office) environment, your Prestige offers the Single User 
Account (SUA) feature that allows multiple users on the LAN (Local Area Network) to access 
the Internet concurrently for the cost of a single IP address.

The Prestige provides protection from attacks by Internet hackers. By default, the firewall 
blocks all incoming traffic from the WAN. The firewall supports TCP/UDP inspection and 
DoS (Denial of Services) detection and prevention, as well as real time alerts, reports and logs.
