Chapter 1 Getting to know your BCM50e Integrated Router 33BCM50e Integrated Router Configuration - AdvancedUniversal Plug and Play (UPnP)Using the standard TCP/IP protocol, the Business Secure Router and otherUPnP-enabled devices can dynamically join a network, obtain an IP address, andconvey its capabilities to other devices on the network.Call schedulingConfigure call time periods to restrict and allow access for users on remote nodes.PPPoEPPPoE facilitates the interaction of a host with an Internet modem to achieveaccess to high-speed data networks via a familiar dial-up networking userinterface.PPTP EncapsulationPoint-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a network protocol that enablessecure transfer of data from a remote client to a private server, creating a VirtualPrivate Network (VPN) using a TCP/IP-based network.PPTP supports on-demand, multiprotocol, and virtual private networking overpublic networks, such as the Internet. The Business Secure Router supports onePPTP server connection at any given time.Dynamic DNS supportWith Dynamic DNS (Domain Name System) support, you can have a static hostname alias for a dynamic IP address, so the host is more easily accessible fromvarious locations on the Internet. You must register for this service with aDynamic DNS service provider.IP MulticastThe Business Secure Router can use IP multicast to deliver IP packets to a specificgroup of hosts. IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) is the protocol usedto support multicast groups. The Business Secure Router supports versions 1 and2.
