Stand Alone: LAN1 and LAN2 each use a unique IP address. These IP addresses are independent
of each other.

Link Aggregation: This uses IEEE 802.3ad port link aggregation to combine LAN1 and LAN2 into a
single logical link with greater bandwidth. Both interfaces use the same IP address and MAC
address. It also includes fault tolerance and load balancing. Connect LAN1 and LAN2 to the same
Ethernet switch. The switch must also have IEEE 802.3ad port link aggregation (also called
trunking) enabled for the two interfaces connected to the NAS.

IP Address
The NAS needs an IP address to communicate with other devices on your network. The NAS can get
an IP address automatically if you have a device on your network that gives them out. Or you can
assign the NAS a static (fixed) IP address.
DNS Server Address
A DNS (Domain Name System) server maps domain names (like www.zyxel.com) to their
corresponding numerical IP addresses. This lets you use domain names to access web sites without
having to know their IP addresses. The NAS can receive the IP address of a DNS server
automatically (along with the NAS’s own IP address). You can also manually enter a DNS server IP
address in the NAS.
PPPoE
Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) allows the NAS to establish a direct Internet
connection if you do not have a router. PPPoE is a dial-up connection. You need a username and
password from your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to set up the connection.
