Chapter 1 Getting To Know Your Prestige
1.1.2.1 Internet Access
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.

DoS (Denial of Services) detection and prevention, as well as real time alerts, reports and logs.
