Introduction

This example illustrates how to set up a Point to Point Protocol (PPP) dedicated connection to an ISP using a Compatible Systems Internet Access Router.

Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) will assign Class C network or subnet numbers for your network and the Wide Area Network (WAN) ports from a group of network numbers assigned to them by the Internet Information Center (InterNIC) .

Note: All IP addresses in this example are for demonstrational purposes only and have been borrowed from the private address space reserved by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) .

Connecting your Local Area Network (LAN)

Your ISP has provided you with the following information:

Customer Network Address: 192.168.200.0
Customer Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Your LAN is connected to the ISP by a dedicated (leased) line and two Communication Service Units (CSUs). The ISP has assigned you a complete Class C network with 254 node addresses to your LAN. We have chosen to use the first address (192.168.200.1) for the router's Ethernet IP address. Other hosts on your network will select from the remaining addresses (2 to 254) for their IP addresses and define the default gateway in their TCP/IP setup as the router's Ethernet IP address.
