Network Protocol Menu (Continued)

Parameter	Description
Secondary IP	Applies to Numbered interfaces. Indicates a second (or third, etc. up to eight) IP
Address	address that can be used to refer to this interface. This parameter and the next are
	repeated until no value is entered.
Subnet Mask	Applies to Numbered interfaces. Subnet mask of Secondary IP Address.
IP MTU	Assigns the size of the Maximum Transmission Unit for the interface. This determines
	whether or not a given IP datagram is fragmented.
NAT	Determines the type of IP address if NAT is being used. Use Global otherwise. See
	chapter 11 or the examples in chapter 2 for details on how to configure NAT.
ICMP Port	Active causes the router to send ICMP Port Unreachable messages when it receives
	UDP or TCP messages for ports that are not recognized. This type of message is
	used by some traceroute applications, and if disabled, the router might not be identified
	in the traceroute output. However, there are security and performance reasons to
	leave this option Inactive.
Incoming Rule List	Filter rule list for incoming packets. See chapter 12 for instructions on how this
	parameter should be set.
Detailed Incoming IP	Applies when a list is selected in the previous parameter. See explanation of IP
Accounting	Accounting in chapter 10. IP Accounting for a rule requires that the parameter
	CONFIG =>RULES LIST=>IP=>CONFIGURE RULES=>ADD RULE=>ALLOW
	ACCOUNT PROCESS also be Yes.
Outgoing Rule List	Filter rule list for outgoing packets. See chapter 12 for instructions on how this
Name	parameter should be set.
Detailed Outgoing IP	Applies when a list is selected in the previous parameter. See explanation of Detailed
Accounting	Incoming IP Accounting.
Routing of Broadcast	Activating this parameter causes the router to route broadcast messages from the LAN
Messages	to the WAN and vice-versa. An individual interface can be excluded by setting this
	parameter to Inactive, without effecting the broadcast of messages on the other
	interfaces.
Proxy ARP	Causes the router to answer ARP requests with its own MAC address for IP addresses
	reachable on another interface.
