How Do I...
How Do I View Activity on My WAN Interface?
You can view activity on a WAN interface by using the Monitor feature in SDM.
Monitor screens can display statistics about the WAN interface, including the
number of packets and bytes that have been sent or received by the interface, and
the number of send or receive errors that have occurred. To display statistics about
a WAN interface:
Step1 From the toolbar, click Monitor.
Step2 From the left frame, click Interface Status.
Step3 In the Select an Interface field, select the WAN interface for which you want to
view statistics.
Step4 Select the data item(s) you want to view by checking the associated check box(es).
You can view up to four statistics at a time.
Step5 Click Show Details to see statistics for all selected data items.
The Interface Details screen appears, displaying the statistics you selected. The
screen defaults to showing real-time data, for which it polls the router every
10 seconds. If the interface is up and there is data transmitting across it, you
should see an increase in the number of packets and bytes transferred across the
interface.
How Do I Configure NAT on a WAN Interface?
Step1 Click Configure on the SDM toolbar.
Step2 Click NAT in the left frame.
Step3 In the NAT window, click Designate NAT interfaces.
Step4 Find the interface for which you want to configure NAT.
Step5 Check inside(trusted) next to the interface to designate the interface as an inside,
or trusted interface. An inside designation is typically used to designate an
interface serving a LAN whose resources. must be protected. Check
outside(untrusted) to designate it as an outside interface. Outside interfaces
typically connect to an untrusted network. Click OK.
