Profile Directory:Remote Profile
Remote (WAN) Profile
WAN IP
This field is used to enable the Router to assign an IP Address to the remote device that
this remote profile is attached to.
Numbered
Designate if the local unit will have an IP Address assigned to the WAN when
communicating with this remote unit. If the remote unit is an Adit, it is recommended that
the WAN remain unnumbered, thus conserving IP Addresses. This field displays if the IP
Mode field is set to <Route>.
IP Address: This address is used to uniquely identify the unit on the internetwork. Use
this field to assign an IP Address to the WAN.
Subnet Mask: A subnet mask determines which bits in the IP address are used to
identify the network number. It is also a method of extending the IP Network Address
so that a site may use one network address for several different networks.
Default Router
Use this field to identify a router that is physically connected to your LAN. If the Router
receives a packet destined to a network that is not known, the packet will be sent to the
router identified in this field. This field is only displayed if the IP Mode field is set to
<Bridge>.
