Figure 23   Ethernet Encapsulation

The following table describes the labels in this screen.

The Prestige supports PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet). PPPoE is an IETF  
standard (RFC 2516) specifying how a personal computer (PC) interacts with a broadband 
modem (DSL, cable, wireless, etc.) connection. The PPP over Ethernet option is for a dial-
up connection using PPPoE.
