Settings – Port Options

Connection Validation Health Check – Disable will not do Alive Indicator Check. By default health check is enable. Health checking is performing an ICMP echo request and HTTP packets to the specific destination that could be either: 1. Name or IP Address user specified in the “Alive Indicator” input box or gateway of WAN interface if “Alive Indicator” input box is left blank.

 

Alive Indicator – This is the IP address used to check if the WAN

 

connection is operating. The VPN 800/2 Firewall Router will contact

 

this system to check if the WAN connection is working. Change this

 

address if you wish. Default is the gateway IP.

 

Note: This is not used for PPPoE connections.

 

MTU – The Maximum Transmission Unit is used when determining

 

the packet size to be used on the WAN interface. Normally, this

 

does not need to be changed, but if your ISP advises you to use a

 

particular MTU, enter it here.

PPPoE / PPTP

Auto Dialup – If set to Enable a connection will be established

Connection Options

whenever outgoing WAN traffic is detected. If not Enabled, you

 

must establish a connection manually.

 

Auto Disconnect – This determines when an idle connection will

 

be terminated. Enter the required time period.

 

Echo Time – This determines how often an Echo request is sent to

 

the PPPoE server. The Echo request is used to determine if the

 

connection is still valid. Normally, there is no need to change the

 

default value.

 

Echo Retry – The number of time the Echo request will be sent, if

 

there is no response to the first request. Normally, there is no need

 

to change the default value.

Transparent Bridge

Bridge Mode – If set to Enable, this WAN port doesn’t use NAT &

Option

Load Balance function when LAN/WAN IP have the real IP

addresses on the same network segment.

 

 

NetBIOS Broadcast – This function can allow you access files

 

through Microsoft network neighborhood. If you enable the NetBIOS

 

Broadcast function.

 

Traffic Management Strict Binding: traffic from bridge hosts(eg.

 

transparent to wan1) can only go thru that specified wan(eg.

 

wan1) interface. Loose Binding: Traffic from bridge hosts (eg.

 

transparent to wan1) can go thru alternative wan(eg.

 

wan2) interface when bind interface (eg. wan1) is down, it's acting

 

like a fail over mechanism for transparent bridge mode. Load

 

Balancing: Traffic from bridge hosts (eg. transparent to wan1) can

 

go thru either wan(eg. wan1 or wan2) interface based on loading

 

mechanism specified in the load balance section, it's acting like a

 

load balancing mechanism for transparent bridge mode.

 

ARP Table – ARP table is used by the device to determine the

 

bridge hosts’ location (eg, inside/outside wan and which wan) its’

 

size can be adjusted if needed.
