LABEL

DESCRIPTION

interface_name

The name of the interface.

 

Ethernet interface: For the ZyWALL USG 300 and above, use gex, x = 1 - N, where N

 

equals the highest numbered Ethernet interface for your ZyWALL model.

 

ZyWALL USG 200 and below models use a name such as wan1, wan2, opt, lan1, ext-

 

wlan, or dmz.

 

virtual interface on top of Ethernet interface: add a colon (:) and the number of the

 

virtual interface. For example: gex:y, x = 1 - N, y = 1 - 4

 

VLAN interface: vlanx, x = 0 - 4094

 

virtual interface on top of VLAN interface: vlanx:y, x = 0 - 4094, y = 1 - 4

 

bridge interface: brx, x = 0 - N, where N depends on the number of bridge interfaces

 

your ZyWALL model supports.

 

virtual interface on top of bridge interface: brx:y, x = the number of the bridge interface,

 

y = 1 - 4

 

PPPoE/PPTP interface: pppx, x = 0 - N, where N depends on the number of PPPoE/PPTP

 

interfaces your ZyWALL model supports.

 

 

profile_name

The name of the DHCP pool. You may use 1-31 alphanumeric characters,

 

underscores(_), or dashes (-), but the first character cannot be a number. This value is

 

case-sensitive.
