Configure the WAN interface

Instructions for configuring the WAN interface are available through the console:

- Readme.config (configuring IP over frame)

- Wanpipe Configuration.pdf (general overview)

Wanpipe Configuration

Before starting WANPIPE, a configuration file (wanpipeN.conf, where N=1,2,3..etc.) must be

created in /etc/wanpipe directory. This file contains the line, hardware and interface

definitions for the WAN connection.

The program /usr/sbin/wancfg should be used to create the configuration file(s). It is a GUI,

ncurses based, configurator that contains all wanpipe options as well as extended help

information on each option.

Things you should know before starting /usr/sbin/wancfg:
