This information is in relation to our Etherway/Etherflow services.
 
==IP settings==
 
PPP or PPPoE is not used on Ethernet services. Instead a direct IP interlink subnet between A&A routers and the customer's router.
 
The Ethernet link provides a connection between your network and ours, and we connect your network to the internet. To achieve this we provide IP addresses on the link. A block of IP addresses is used specifically to link between us, and then additional addresses are provided as needed for your network.

==Additional IP blocks==
If you have additional IP requirements, these will be set up on your control pages and you can change the target address if you need. We will set these up to route to your gateway address initially, assuming (for IPv4) that you are using the last usable address as your firewall/router.
 
==DSL Fallback==
Customers with an Ethernet circuit can also have one or more DSL circuits, and the IP block(s) can be configured to fall back to DSL in the case of the Ethernet going down.
 
As well as using ADSL or FTTC circuits for Fallback, it can also be done by using one of our 3G or 4G data SIMs, or our L2TP service.
 
Usually this can be setup by staff.

==BGP==
==Multiple links==
If you have multiple independent etherflows then these appear on separate VLANs at your end. The above applies to each etherflow to us for internet access. Etherflows to other sites you may have are entirely for you to configure as you wish at an Ethernet level.
