Speed

Description

In most cases, the UTM can automatically determine the connection speed of the WAN port of the device (modem or router) that provides the WAN connection. If you cannot establish an Internet connection, you might need to select the port speed manually. If you know the Ethernet port speed of the modem or router, select it from the drop-down list. Use the half-duplex settings only if the full-duplex settings do not function correctly.

Select one of the following speeds from the drop-down list:

AutoSense. Speed autosensing. This is the default setting, which can sense all Ethernet speeds and duplex modes, including 1000BASE-T speed at full duplex.

10BaseT Half_Duplex. Ethernet speed at half duplex.

10BaseT Full_Duplex. Ethernet speed at full duplex.

100BaseT Half_Duplex. Fast Ethernet speed at half duplex.

100BaseT Full_Duplex. Fast Ethernet speed at full duplex.

1000BaseT Full_Duplex. Gigabit Ethernet.

Router’s MAC Address

Make one of the following selections:

Use Default Address

Each computer or router on your network has a unique 32-bit local Ethernet

 

address. This is also referred to as the computer’s Media Access Control (MAC)

 

address. To use the UTM’s own MAC address, select the Use Default Address

 

radio button.

Use this computer’s MAC

Select the Use this computer’s MAC Address radio button to allow the UTM to

Address

use the MAC address of the computer you are now using to access the web

 

management interface. This setting is useful if your ISP requires MAC

 

authentication.

 

 

Use this MAC Address

Select the Use this MAC Address radio button, and manually enter the MAC

 

address in the field next to the radio button. You would typically enter the MAC

 

address that your ISP is requiring for MAC authentication.

 

Note: The format for the MAC address is 01:23:45:67:89:AB (numbers

 

0–9 and either uppercase or lowercase letters A–F). If you enter a MAC

 

address, the existing entry is overwritten.

 

 

Failure Detection Method

See Configure the Failure Detection Method on page 84, including Table 17 on page 84.

Upload/Download Settings

These settings rate-limit the traffic that is forwarded by the UTM.

WAN Connection Type

From the drop-down list, select the type of connection that the UTM uses to connect to the Internet: DSL, ADSL, Cable Modem, T1, T3, or Other.
