In the occasion of a DSLoL interface the same entries as for the DSL inter-
face are valid. The entries are made in the Broadband-Peers list.
11.3.2 Layer list
With a layer, a collection of protocol settings are defined, which should be
used when connecting to specific remote stations. The list of the communi-
cation layers can be found under:
In the communication layer list the common protocol combinations are al-
ready predefined. Changes or additions should only be made when remote
stations are incompatible to the existing layers. The possible options are con-
tained in the following list.
Note: Please note that the parameters located in BAT depend upon the func-
tionality of the unit. It is possible that your unit does not offer all of the op-
tions described here.

Parameter Meaning
Layer name The layer is selected in the peer list under this name.
Encapsula-
tion
Additional encapsulations can be set for data packets.
'Transpar-
ent'
No additional encapsulations.
'Ethernet' Encapsulation in the form of ethernet frames.
'LLC-MUX' Multiplexing via ATM with LLC/SNAP encapsulation according to RFC 2684. Sev-
eral protocols can be transmitted over the same VC (Virtual Channel).
'VC-MUX' Multiplexing with ATM by establishing additional VCs according to RFC 2684.
Layer-3 The following options are available for the switching layer or network layer:
'Transpar-
ent'
No additional header is inserted.
'PPP' The connection is established according to the PPP protocol (in the synchronous
mode, i.e. bit-oriented). The configuration data are taken from the PPP table.
'Asyn-
cPPP'
Like 'PPP', only the asynchronous mode is used. This means that PPP functions
character-oriented.
'... with
script'
All options can be run with their own script if desired. The script is specified in the
script list.
'DHCP' Assignment of the network parameters via DHCP.
