Zoom ADSL X5 Configuration Buttons

Configuration Buttons

Use the buttons in the Configuration group to perform advanced configuration tasks.

The following table lists each button in the Configuration group and gives a brief description of the settings you can specify.

This button…	Opens a page that lets you…
WAN	Specify how your Wide Area Network ADSL setup
Configuration	is configured. This page is also where you would
	set up a static IP address (if you have arranged
	for one with your Internet service provider).
Port Settings	Set the ports used when you use FTP or Telnet
	with the device or if you are running a Web server
	behind it.
Bridging	Specify which device interfaces are capable of
	bridging data between your LAN/WAN and
	Internet service provider. Interfaces can be
	routable (for example, assigned an IP address),
	bridgeable, or both.
Dynamic DNS	Enter the Host name you registered with a
	Dynamic DNS service provider. This page is for
	those who are using dynamic IP addressing (the
	X5’s default) and want to host a Web site. The
	Dynamic DNS service provider keeps track of
	your constantly changing IP address and routes
	those trying to access your Web site to the correct
	location.
SNMP	Set up Simple Network Management Protocol
	(SNMP). This enables a host computer to access
	configuration, performance, and other system
	data that resides in a database on the modem.
IP Filtering	Set up rules to control the forwarding of incoming
	and outgoing data between your LAN and the
	Internet and within your LAN. For example, you
	can create IP filter rules to block attempts by
	certain computers on your LAN to access certain
	types of data or Internet locations. You can also
	block or allow incoming access to computers on
	your LAN. This page displays the current filters
	and lets you edit and add filters.
