To configure WAN Connection Settings, select a WAN interface and click Edit.

WAN Connection Settings appears.

Select the WAN Connection Type from the menu and modify the related parameters as described in these sections:

Obtain an IP Automatically

Choose this option if your ISP dynamically assigns an IP address to the device. (Most cable modem subscribers use this connection type.) The ISP assigns the device IP address for this port, including the DNS server IP addresses.

To specify a DNS server, check Use the Following DNS Server Addresses and enter the IP address of DNS Server 1. Optionally, you can enter a second DNS server. The first available DNS server is used.

To set the maximum transmission unit (MTU) size automatically, select Auto. Otherwise, to set the MTU size manually, select Manual and enter the MTU size. (The size in bytes of the largest protocol data unit that the layer can pass.)

To configure the IPv6 parameters, check Enable. The DHCPv6 client process and requests for prefix delegation through the selected interface are enabled. Use this option when your ISP is capable of sending LAN prefixes by using DHCPv6. If your ISP does not support this option, manually configure a LAN prefix:

NOTE When DHCP-PD is enabled, manual LAN IPv6 addressing is disabled. When DHCP- PD is disabled, manual LAN IPv6 addressing is enabled.

LAN IPv6 Address—Global IPv6 prefix that was assigned by your ISP for your LAN devices, if applicable. (Check with your ISP for more information.)

Prefix Length—IPv6 prefix length: The IPv6 network (subnet) is identified by the initial bits of the address called the prefix. All hosts in the network have the identical initial bits for their IPv6 address. Enter the number of common initial bits in the network addresses. The default prefix length is 64.

LAN Prefix Assignment:

-Without any action—Does not provide Stateless or Stateful IPv6 address for LAN-side PCs.

-Configure to RA automatically—ProvidesStateless IPv6 address for LAN-side PCs.

-Configure to DHCPv6 automatically—ProvidesStateful IPv6 address for LAN-side PCs.
