Using Device tabs to configure the security gateway

Point-to-Point Protocol Over Ethernet (PPPoE) Client

Use PPPoE Client addressing as a convenient way to connect the public or public-backup zone of the security gateway to the Internet, if your ISP supports PPPoE addressing. PPPoE Client addressing requires user authentication. To configure PPPoE addressing, complete the following information

Field

Description

 

 

PPPoE User

Account user name which your ISP

ID

assigns

 

 

Password

Account password

 

 

Note:

Avoid resetting the security gateway by power cycling the unit when PPPoE is configured, as this method requires a proper shutdown in order to avoid a lockout condition during reconnection. This lockout period can last for a few minutes (time varies from ISP to ISP).

Local DHCP Server

The local DHCP server private port configuration is the default configuration to support the IP devices that are connected to your LAN. In the local DHCP server mode, the protected devices are automatically provided with an IP address, a default route, a domain name (the security gateway), and WINS.

To configure the local DHCP server, complete the following information:

Field

Description

 

 

IP Address

The IP address assigned. The default IP address is

 

192.168.1.1 for the private interface. If multiple interfaces on a

 

security gateway have DHCP server configured, their IP

 

addresses must be unique.

 

 

IP Range

The range of IP addresses that the DHCP server that runs on

From/To

the interface assigns to DHCP clients. The default DHCP

 

address range for the private interface is 192.168.1.32 to

 

192.168.1.127. Each security gateway on the VPN requires a

 

unique DHCP range. In addition, if multiple interfaces on a

 

security gateway have DHCP server configured, the DHCP

 

range on each also must be unique.

 

 

Domain

The domain assigned to the interface. This is only applicable
