MAC Clone

•MAC Clone Service To use MAC address cloning, select Enable. See Figure 7-12.

•MAC Address. To manually clone a MAC address, enter the 12 digits of your adapter’s MAC address in the on- screen fields. Then click the Save Settings button.

•Clone. If you want to clone the MAC address of the PC you are currently using to configure the Router, then click the Clone button. The Router will automatically detect your PC’s MAC address, so you do NOT have to call your ISP to change the registered MAC address to the Router’s MAC address. It is recommended that the PC registered with the ISP is used to open the MAC Address Clone screen.

When finished making your changes on this tab, click the Save Settings button to save these changes, or click the Cancel Changes button to undo your changes. For further help on this tab, click the Help button.

Advanced Routing

The Advanced Routing screen, shown in Figure 7-13, allows you to configure the Network Address Translation (NAT), dynamic routing, and static routing settings.

Advanced Routing

•NAT. NAT is a security feature that is enabled by default. It enables the Router to translate IP addresses of your local area network to a different IP address for the Internet. To disable NAT, click the Disable radio button. (When NAT is disabled, the DHCP server feature is also disabled.)

•Dynamic Routing. With Dynamic Routing you can enable the Router to automatically adjust to physical changes in the network’s layout. The Router, using the RIP protocol, determines the network packets’ route based on the fewest number of hops between the source and the destination. The RIP protocol regularly broadcasts routing information to other routers on the network.

•Transmit RIP Version. To use dynamic routing for transmission of network data select the protocol you want: RIP1, RIP1-Compatible, or RIP2.

•Receive RIP Version. To use dynamic routing for reception of network data, select the protocol you want: RIP1 or RIP2.

•Static Routing. If the Router is connected to more than one network, it may be necessary to set up a static route between them. A static route is a pre-determined pathway that network information must travel to reach a specific host or network. To create a static route, alter the following settings:
