Bridging Network Protocol
VPI and VCI Numbers (with RFC 1483)
The VPI and VCI numbers apply to ATM routers only.
Your router may have been preconfigured with VPI/VCI numbers. If not, you will have to obtain these
numbers from your Network Service Provider and then configure them.
If you are connecting to multiple remote sites, you will need to obtain additional VPI and VCI numbers
from your Network Service Provider and/or Network Access Provider. These numbers identify the
remote destination and must, therefore, be unique for each remote.
DLCI (with RFC 1490)
The DLCI number applies to Frame Relay routers only.
Your Network Service Provider or your Network Access Provider will provide you with a DLCI (Data
Link Connection Identifier). The DLCI is an address identifying your connection.
DNS Internet Account Information (optional)
This information is obtained from the Network Service Provider
.
Consult with your Network Service Provider to find out if you need to enter the following information:
DNS Server Address
