In this case one VC carries multiple protocols with protocol identifying information being 
contained in each packet header. Despite the extra bandwidth and processing overhead, this 
method may be advantageous if it is not practical to have a separate VC for each carried 
protocol, for example, if charging heavily depends on the number of simultaneous VCs.

In this case, by prior mutual agreement, each protocol is assigned to a specific virtual circuit; 
for example, VC1 carries IP, etc. VC-based multiplexing may be dominant in environments 
where dynamic creation of large numbers of ATM VCs is fast and economical.

This is the second WAN setup add (or edit) screen. Use this screen to configure WAN 
connection type and encapsulation mode.
