40.2 Configuring SHDSL WAN Interface
The SHDSL WAN interface can be set up using a variety of protocol configurations. The
WAN connection must contain a physical interface specification (SHDSL pairs and
grouping information) and one or more Layer-2 protocols (PPPoE, PPPoA, RFC 2684
ETHoA, or IPoA). This configuration must match the network setup provided by your
Internet Service Provider (ISP).
Multiple wire-pairs are bonded into a single broadband access link using G.991.2 multiple-
pair (also known as "m-pair") technology when the transmission control is ATM, or by
802.3ah PMD Aggregation Function (PAF) when using Ethernet in the First Mile (EFM).
To configure the SHDSL WAN interface:
1. Obtain the connection information from your ISP, including the following data:
• Transmission control type (ATM or EFM)
• Line rate (automatic or specific range)
• Regional annex (A/F or B/G)
• Number of copper wire-pairs used and the order (i.e., one pair is the master, the
others are slaves)
• VPI and VCI values
• IP encapsulation (PPPoE, PPPoA, ETHoA, IPoA) and variant (LLC-SNAP or VC
multiplexing)
• ATM service class information (CBR/VBR/UBR and data rates)
2. Open the SHDSL Line Settings page (Configuration tab > Data menu > WAN
Access > SHDSL Line Settings).
3. Select ATM or EFM mode of operation. Note that any change to this setting erases all
SHDSL configuration; after switching modes, save the configuration to flash and reset
the device.
