Field Description
Encapsulation Encapsulation is the protocol used between your
broadband gateway and your ISP's servers. Most of the
encapsulations are defined in Internet standards called
Requests for Comments (RFCs). Two are derived from
the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP): PPP over Ethernet
(PPPoE) and PPP over ATM (PPPoA).
Multiplexing Select the method used to route different kinds of data
through different virtual circuits (VCs) in the ATM
network: Logical Link Control (LLC) encapsulation (also
called LLC-SNAP) or Virtual Channel (VC) multiplexing
(also called VC-Mux).
