Chapter 4: Configuration Overview

IP/Mode

Write security: 3; Read security: 5

When set to On (def), this connection profile negotiates PPP IPCP with the PPP peer for exchanging of IP packets.

IP/NAT

Write security: 3; Read security: 5

The Router Option Module can perform Network Address Transla- tion. This feature is most widely used when connecting to the Inter- net. The Ethernet network can consist of private network numbers. When this profile is connected, all IP addresses on the Ethernet side are translated into the one real IP address negotiated with the PPP peer (ISP). Multiple stations on the Ethernet side can access the In- ternet simultaneously. See the section IP/NAT on page page 4-7for more global options.

When set to On, the Router Option Module to perform NAT.

When set to Off (def), the unit will route across the connection nor- mally.

IP/Route

The IP parameters are configured in this menu. UsuallytheRouterOp- tion Module will automatically discover the PPP peer’s networks using PPP IPCP and/or RIP.

Route/IP/Net

Write security: 3; Read security: 5

The PPP peer’s IP address or network can be set here, if known. Leaving this at 0.0.0.0 means that the Router Option Module will de- termine the PPP peer’s IP and network using the PPP IPCP.

Route/Netmask

Write security: 3; Read security: 5

This network mask is applied to the IP/NET address for determin- ing the PPP peer’s network. If left as 0.0.0.0, a standard network mask is used.

Route/Force IP

Write security: 3; Read security: 5

When set to Yes, the Router Option Module will force the PPP peer to use the IP address in the IP/Net for this profile as its WAN IP ad- dress. Normally this is set in the No (def) position.
