Goal Goal
Reconfigure an existing LAN port on the 63xx-series router to serve as a WAN interface.
Setup Setup
This article assumes that a second Internet connection is available from an Ethernet cable, and
that a primary connection is established via an Ethernet connection in the WAN port. Prior to
reconfiguring the LAN port, all interfaces should be operating under default settings, which
provide DHCP conenctivity to client devices. For more details on the default settings of the
63xx-series routers, see the Default Settings Default Settings section of the User Manual.
Sample Sample
The sample configuration below shows a 63xx-series router with two Internet connections
established via Ethernet cables. Ethernet ISP #1 is connected to the reconfigured LAN (port 4)
interface, and Ethernet ISP #2 is connected to the WAN Ethernet port.

The additional WAN interface can then be used in conjunction with other WAN interfaces when
configuring failover, load balancing, or other advanced routing policies.
