Migration from Dial-up to Dedicated Network Services
As your network usage and bandwidth requirements grow,
migrate from ISDN to Frame Relay or dedicated leased line
services at speeds ranging from 56 Kbps to 1.544 Mbps.
Future Growth
Pipeline 50, 75, 85, 130 and 220 users no longer
need to pay for a dedicated IP address with the
Network Address Translation (NAT) capability. When a
Pipeline user connects to the Internet or any other IP
network, a network address can be transparently
assigned to the user for the duration of the connec-
tion session. And when NAT is used in conjunction
with Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
spoofing, IP address management becomes a breeze.
Network managers can configure and dynamically
assign IP addresses to multiple workstations on the
remote office LAN in one easy step.
• Network Address Translation (NAT) eliminates the
need to pay for a dedicated TCP/IP address by allowing
the Pipeline to accept a dynamically assigned address
from a central-site pool of addresses
• Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
spoofing allows network managers to configure and
dynamically assign IP addresses across multiple
clients from the Pipeline
• Data compression that boosts throughput over BRI
up to 512 Kbps to handle bandwidth-intensive files
