WAN Setup – L2TP
If you’re using Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) authentication, you can set up your access point’s WAN type from the steps that follow. For example, if the ISP provided you with the following set up information, you can set up your WAN as described below:
IP Address | : | 203.120.12.47 |
Network Mask | : | 255.255.255.0 |
VPN Server | : | 203.120.12.15 |
Step 1:
Under CONFIGURATION on the command menu, click on WAN Setup.
Step 2:
Access the Select WAN Type page and choose L2TP before clicking the Apply button. You will then be brought to the following page requiring your inputs.
Step 3:
Fill in the information provided by your ISP in the IP Address,
Network Mask, VPN Server, and
DHCP fields, followed by clicking the Apply button.
Please remember to click Reboot System under SYSTEM TOOLS and hit the Reboot button to let the settings take effect.
The Idle Timeout setting allows you to specify the value (in seconds) after which the access point will disconnect from the ISP after the last Internet activity. A value of “0” will disable idle timeout.
