Use the Wizard Setup screens to configure your system for Internet access settings and fill in 

the fields with the information in the Internet Account Information table of the Compact Guide 

or Read Me First. Your ISP may have already configured some of the fields in the wizard 

screens for you. 

Be sure to use the encapsulation method required by your ISP. The BIPAC 5100S supports the 

following methods. 

The MAC Encapsulated Routing Link Protocol (ENET ENCAP) is only implemented with the IP 

network protocol. IP packets are routed between the Ethernet interface and the WAN interface 

and then formatted so that they can be understood in a bridged environment. For instance, it 

encapsulates routed Ethernet frames into bridged ATM cells. ENET ENCAP requires that you 

specify a gateway IP address in the Ethernet Encapsulation Gateway field in the second 

wizard screen. You can get this information from your ISP. 

PPPoE provides access control and billing functionality in a manner similar to dial-up services 

using PPP. The BIPAC 5100S bridges a PPP session over Ethernet (PPP over Ethernet, RFC 

2516) from your computer to an ATM PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit) which connects to ADSL 

Access Concentrator where the PPP session terminates. One PVC can support any number of 

PPP sessions from your LAN. For more information on PPPoE, see the appendix. 

PPPoA stands for Point to Point Protocol over ATM Adaptation Layer 5 (AAL5). It provides 

access control and billing functionality in a manner similar to dial-up services using PPP. The
