Table 6 Broadband Add/Edit: Routing
LABEL DESCRIPTION
General
Name Enter a service name of the connection.
Type The Device transmits data over the Ethernet WAN port.
Mode Select Routing (default) from the drop-down list box if your ISP give you one IP address
only and you want multiple computers to share an Internet account.
WAN Service
Type
This field is available only when you select Routing in the Mode field. Select the method of
encapsulation used by your ISP.
• PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) - PPPoE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet) provides
access control and billing functionality in a manner similar to dial-up services using PPP.
Select this if you have a username and password for Internet access.
• IP over Ethernet - In this type of Internet connection, IP packets are routed between
the Ethernet interface and the WAN interface and then formatted so that they can be
understood in a bridged environment.
PPPoE
Passthrough
This field is available when you select PPPoE encapsulation.
In addition to the Device’s built-in PPPoE client, you can enable PPPoE pass through to allow
up to ten hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE client software on their computers to connect to
the ISP via the Device. Each host can have a separate account and a public WAN IP address.
PPPoE pass through is an alternative to NAT for application where NAT is not appropriate.
Disable PPPoE pass through if you do not need to allow hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE client
software on their computers to connect to the ISP.
IPv6/IPv4 Mode If you select IPv4, the Device only runs IPv4. If you select IPv6, the Device only runs IPv6.
Select IPv6/IPv4 DualStack to allow the Device to run IPv4 and IPv6 at the same time.
VLAN
Enable VLAN Select this to add the VLAN tag (specified below) to the outgoing traffic through this
connection.
Enter 802.1P
Priority
IEEE 802.1p defines up to 8 separate traffic types by inserting a tag into a MAC-layer frame
that contains bits to define class of service.
Type the IEEE 802.1p priority level (from 0 to 7) to add to traffic through this connection.
The greater the number, the higher the priority level.
Enter 802.1Q
VLAN ID
Type the VLAN ID number (from 1 to 4094) for traffic through this connection.
PPP
Information
This section is available only when you select Routing in the Mode field and PPPoE in the
WAN Service Type field.
PPP User Name Enter the user name exactly as your ISP assigned. If assigned a name in the form
user@domain where domain identifies a service name, then enter both components exactly
as given.
PPP Password Enter the password associated with the user name above.
PPPoE Service
Name
Type the name of your PPPoE service here.
