Configuring IP for the Remote Site Connection 4-9
Remote WAN IP Address:
■
If you were provided a remote IP address and netmask, select
Specified and type in that address and netmask.
■
If the OfficeConnect Remote 840 is learning the remote IP address
from the remote site (PPP only), select
Learn from Remote .
2 In order to have the remote site you are configuring as the default
gateway, check the
Use Remote as Default Gateway checkbox.
3 If you are routing IP traffic to multiple remote sites, select one to be your
default gateway. Then check this box only in the profile for that remote
site.
4 Select from the pull-down menu to have the RIP set to Broadcast, Listen,
or Broadcast & Listen, and if one of these is chosen, set the RIP option to
RIPV1 or RIPV2.
If you are using address translation (PAT / NAT), you must set routing to
either
Listen or None . This is because you have set up a private network
and therefore do not want to be broadcasting information to other
routers.
5 Ensure that Enable IP is checked (enabled) and click Modify .
You are now done configuring the basic IP information for the Remote
Site Connection.
Further Remote Site IP Configuration information is available in the
following sections:
■
Address Translation information is available in “Network Address
Translation Using the OfficeConnect Remote 840” .
■
Address Validation Information is available under “Using IP Address
Validation” .
