12.5 LAN (ext)
12.5.1 Configuring the Interface to the External Network
(LAN/WAN)
The MoRoS GPRS 2.1 PRO uses its router function to switch the data traffic be-
tween two IP networks, an "internal" and an "external". The LAN ext interface of the
MoRoS GPRS 2.1 PRO serves for connecting the MoRoS GPRS 2.1 PRO to the ex-
ternal network. This external network can be another LAN, which can be accessed
via an Ethernet cable. Then, you have to configure an IP address for the LAN ext in-
terface of the MoRoS GPRS 2.1 PRO. This IP address must be in the address range
of the external LAN, into which the MoRoS GPRS 2.1 PRO shall route. However, the
external network can also be a WAN, which is connected via an DSL connection. In
this case, you must configure the interface for PPPoE operation, that the MoRoS
GPRS 2.1 PRO can communicate with the WAN via an DSL modem.

be an address from the external LAN, to which you connect the MoRoS
GPRS 2.1 PRO.
