3.From the MAC Address for VLANs drop-down list, select Unique. (The default is Same.)

4.As an option, you can disable the broadcast of ARP packets for the default VLAN by clearing the Enable ARP Broadcast check box. (The broadcast of ARP packets is enabled by default for the default VLAN.)

5.Click Apply to save your settings.

Note: If you attempt to configure more than 16 VLANs while the MAC address for VLANs is set to Unique on the LAN Advanced screen, the MAC addresses that are assigned to each VLAN might no longer be distinct.

Configure IPv4 Multihome LAN IP Addresses on the Default VLAN

If you have computers using different IPv4 networks in the LAN (for example, 172.124.10.0 or 192.168.200.0), you can add aliases to the LAN ports and give computers on those networks access to the Internet, but you can do so only for the default VLAN. The IP address that is assigned as a secondary IP address needs to be unique and cannot be assigned to a VLAN.

Make sure that any secondary LAN addresses are different from the primary LAN, WAN, and DMZ IP addresses and subnet addresses that are already configured on the wireless VPN firewall. The following is an example of correctly configured IPv4 addresses:

•WAN IP address. 10.0.0.1 with subnet 255.0.0.0

•DMZ IP address. 176.16.2.1 with subnet 255.255.255.0

•Primary LAN IP address. 192.168.1.1 with subnet 255.255.255.0

•Secondary LAN IP address. 192.168.20.1 with subnet 255.255.255.0
