Tasks to Set Up IPv4 Internet Connections to Your ISPs
Complete these tasks:
1. Configure the IPv4 routing mode. Select either NAT or classical routing: see
Configure the IPv4 WAN Mode on page 28.
2. Configure the IPv4 Internet connections to your ISPs. Connect to one or more ISPs by
configuring up to four WAN interfaces: See one of the following sections:
•Let the VPN Firewall Automatically Detect and Configure an IPv4 Internet Connection
on page 30
•Manually Configure an IPv4 Internet Connection on page 33
As an option, you can program the WAN traffic meter: See Configure and Enable the
WAN Traffic Meter on page 347.
3. (Optional) Configure either load balancing or auto-rollover. Select load balancing or
auto-rollover and a failure detection method: See Configure Load Balancing or
Auto-Rollover on page 39. By default, the WAN interfaces are configured for primary
(single) WAN mode. If you configure load balancing, you can also configure protocol binding.
4. (Optional) Configure secondary WAN addresses on the WAN interfaces. Configure
aliases for each WAN interface: See Configure Secondary WAN Addresses on page 46.
5. (Optional) Configure Dynamic DNS on the WAN interfaces. If required, configure your
fully qualified domain names: See Configure Dynamic DNS on page 48.
6. (Optional) Configure the WAN options. If required, change the factory default MTU size,
port speed, and MAC address of the VPN firewall: See Configure Advanced WAN Options
and Other Tasks on page 67. These are advanced features, and you usually do not need to
change the settings.
Tasks to Set Up an IPv6 Internet Connection to Your ISPs
Note: You can configure one WAN interface only for IPv6. This restriction
might be lifted in a later release.
Complete these tasks:
1. Configure the IPv6 routing mode. Configure the VPN firewall to support both devices
with IPv4 addresses and devices with IPv6 addresses: See Configure the IPv6 Routing
Mode on page 52.
2. Configure the IPv6 Internet connections to your ISPs. Connect to an ISP by configuring
a WAN interface: See one of the following sections:
•Use a DHCPv6 Server to Configure an IPv6 Internet Connection on page 54
•Configure a Static IPv6 Internet Connection on page 57
•Configure a PPPoE IPv6 Internet Connection on page 60
