DSL-504 ADSL Router User’s Guide 

Static Routing  

This allows you to select a data path to a particular network destination that will 

remain in the routing table and never “age out”. This enables you to route IP 

traffic to a specific destination within your LAN (for example to a another router 

or a server) or outside your network (to an ISP defined default gateway for 

instance).   

Default Routing  

This allows you to choose a default path for incoming data packets for which the 

destination address is unknown. This is particularly useful when the Router 

functions as the sole connection to the Internet. 

ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) 

The DSL-504 supports Bridged Ethernet over ATM, IP over ATM and PPP over 

ATM. The Router can support up to eight Virtual Circuit Connections (VCCs). 

Precise ATM Traffic Shaping 

Traffic shaping is a method of controlling the flow rate of ATM data cells. It 

functions to establish the Quality of Service for ATM data transfer. 

G.hs (Auto-handshake)  

The Router can automatically choose either the G.lite or G.dmt ADSL connection 

standards.  

High Performance 

Very high rates of data transfer are possible with the Router. Up to 8 Mbps 

downstream bit rate using G.dmt. 

Full Network Management 

The DSL-504 incorporates SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) 

support and menu-driven network management via an RS-232 or Telnet 

connection. 

Telnet Connection 

The Telnet feature enables a network manager to access the Router’s 

management software remotely. 

Easy Installation  

The Router uses a web-based interface management system compatible with 

most standard web browsers for easy installation and management.
