IP Address
Choose how the router will obtain an IP address for this link. The fields that
appear in this area change according to the encapsulation type chosen. Your
service provider or network administrator must tell you the method the router
should use to obtain an IP address.
Static IP address
If you choose Static IP Address, enter the address that the interface will use, and
the subnet mask or the network bits. Obtain this information from your service
provider or network administrator. For more information, see IP Addresses and
Subnet Masks.
Dynamic IP address
If you choose Dynamic IP address, the interface will obtain an IP address from a
DHCP server on the network. If the DHCP server uses DHCP option 12, it sends
a hostname for the router along with the IP address the router is to use. Check with
your service provider or network administrator to determine the hostname sent.
IP Unnumbered
Choose this option if you want the interface to share an IP address with an
Ethernet interface on the router. If you choose this option, you must specify from
the drop-down list the Ethernet interface whose address you want to use.
IP Address for Remote Connection in Central Office
Enter the IP address of the gateway system to which this link will connect. This
IP address is supplied by the service provider or network administrator. The
gateway is the system that the router must connect to in order to access the
Internet or your organization’s WAN.
Equipment Type
Choose one of the values below:
CPE
Customer premises equipment. If the encapsulation type is PPPoE, CPE is
automatically chosen and the field is disabled.
