DESCRIPTION

This field is available only when you select Active NAT.

VLAN

This section is available in this screen only when you select Bridge in

 

 

the Mode field.

 

 

 

 

VLAN Active

Select this option to enable VLAN multiplexing of multiple protocols

 

 

over a single virtual circuit. You need to assign a VLAN ID and priority

 

 

level to traffic through each WAN connection. All WAN connections

 

 

share one MAC address. This allows the backbone switch to classify

 

 

and service traffic based on the VLAN tag, instead of the MAC address.

 

 

Otherwise, disable VLAN multiplexing and each WAN connection has

 

 

its own MAC address.

 

 

Note: This field is only configurable for the first WAN connection.

 

 

When you change the setting here, all existing WAN

 

 

connections will be removed except for the first WAN

 

 

connection.

 

 

 

 

VLAN ID

Enter a VLAN ID number for traffic that goes through this connection.

 

 

 

 

Priority
