• PPP over ATM (PPPoA)

PPP over ATM is a protocol for connecting remote hosts to the Internet over an ADSL

connection by simulating an ATM connection.

Auto Sensing and Auto Uplink™ LAN Ethernet Connections

With its internal 10/100 switch, the DM111P can connect to either a 10 Mbps standard Ethernet

network or a 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet network. The local LAN ports are autosensing and capable

of full-duplex or half-duplex operation.

The modem incorporates Auto Uplink

technology. Each local Ethernet port will automatically

sense whether the Ethernet cable plugged into the port should have a ‘normal’ connection such as

to a computer or an ‘uplink’ connection such as to a switch or hub. That port will then configure

itself to the correct configuration. This feature also eliminates the need to worry about crossover

cables, as Auto Uplink will accommodate either type of cable to make the right connection.
